Anna, a 38-year-old Korean adoptee with a cognitive disability, lives with her aging parents in suburban Florida, where she receives their support while also increasingly helping to care for them. When a severe heat wave exposes her father’s worsening dementia, the family’s fragile care network begins to unravel.
