PASSED AWAY

“The hilariously grave comedy that proves eternity is spending three days with family!”

Thrown for a loop by the unexpected news that Dad has suddenly gone to his reward, the grieving eccentric Scanian clan are drawn together in a test of familial endurance that soon has them at each other's throats.
