SYNOPSIS
Down South, family dysfunction is an art form and the Turpin family is proof. The patriarch drops dead and the whole family pulls together in their grief. But on-going problems within the clan pull them apart. One drinks too much; one eats too much; and the widow wants to etch ‘Mean and Surly’ on the grave stone. Their misfit friends get them to and through the funeral. What a way to go – laughing.
