Set against the backdrop of the Pittsburgh skyline,
Sister Audrey
is a sweeping epic of an ordinary family.
Switching between 1983 and 2008, a familial tapestry is woven as relationships flourish and wane, children grow up and move away, and the landscape of the city transforms with time. Cousins Nick and Will were close as kids, but after Will relocates to New York as an adult, Nick is left to look after the family. Feeling trapped in Pittsburgh and struggling to process his brother's death, Nick spends his time alternating between his local bar and the VFW. When Will and his eight-year-old daughter Natalie come to visit, Nick tries to maintain an air of stability, but old memories, good and bad, rush forward. Sister Audrey is a touching look at obligation, grief, and the importance of family.
