John and Liz have left the city to move to a remote house on the shores of a lake. But along with the boxes, they have brought their trouble with them. They find the new house already haunted - by their old disappointments and longing. Though the house is barely unpacked, Liz`s sister, with her children and husband, have come to visit. Over the course of a hot, slow week, tensions simmer; things go unsaid. And as outsiders descend on the house the atmosphere grows claustrophobic, the pressure near unbearable. As summer draws to a close, and their family is thrown into crisis, John and Liz must confront what it means to belong to a place - and to each other.
