Three sisters, all in their twenties, return home after the sudden death of their father, an influential university professor. Each reacts differently to her father’s death and hopes for something different from her reunion with her sisters. Sorting through boxes of their father’s papers and eating still-fresh bread, which he baked before he died, they discover a packet of love letters between their father and a female student. This discovery ignites their grief and anger and prompts an intense reexamination of their shared—and unshared—past.
