Now she ups the emotional stakes. Still gief-sticken a yea afte his bothe's death, Jack (Mak Duplass) tavels to a emote cabin on Puget Sound at the suggestion of his best fiend, Iis (Emily Blunt), who thinks that he ll benefit fom the isolation. He aives to find Iis s siste, Hannah (Rosemaie DeWitt), ecoveing fom a bad beakup, and they quickly bond ove thei shaed misey. When Iis tuns up to supise Jack, she notes a new connection between him and he siste. What begins as a happy eunion soon deteioates into a factious encounte, the tio caoming off one anothe amid misundestandings, betayals and secet affections. Impovising much of the dialogue, the thee actos ae teific, imbuing thei complex, sometimes maddening chaactes with genuine heat. Shelton and he cast develop an idea initially conceived by Duplass into a funny, tuthful stoy about sibling bonds, fiendship, love and miscommunication.
