About A Family Dinner
Four adult children return home for a family dinner at their parents' New England house for the first time since the eldest son's marriage four years earlier, when something happened to keep them apart. Everyone joins in the cooking, gossip, laughter and teasing, and they all enjoy a formal dinner together until boundaries blur and tension and confrontation between the brothers lead to a shocking discovery. Exposed out in the open, this secret threatens to destroy the delicately balanced dysfunction of the family. Will this shatter their collective reality or will they go on as if this ripple under the calm waters never happened? This family is destined to repeat past transgressions and keep secrets hidden from the world, each other and themselves.
Directed by Peter Davenport, A Family Dinner leans on a strong ensemble — Peter Davenport, Sheryl Sciro, Ian Walker — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about screen titles of 2012.
