A hilariously-beleaguered magazine writer, suffering exaggerated feelings of abandonment, tries to reconnect with his extended family, scattered a generation ago by a particularly nasty familial infidelity. As he mines their lives for material for his column, including unhappy marriages, failed careers, spoiled kids, drug addiction, homosexuality, and his own obsession with his dead-by-suicide father, he risks losing them all over again.
