"The sadness weighing down the Kendall family like wet snow on evergreen branches isn't simply holiday malaise. It's Christmas 1999, and the doomsday fears of Y2K have nothing on the Kendalls' everyday miseries. Elaine (Karen Allen) is caretaker to her adult children, the developmentally disabled DeeDee (Iris Gilad) and Gulf War veteran Kent (Johnny Whitworth), whose undiagnosed chronic pain reaches a crescendo at the same time that his sister's violent outbursts become a daily occurrence." - The Village Voice
