Spoilers ahead
The Briggs family comes together for the first time in over twenty years to attend Marina’s funeral and to hear the reading of her will. For Tyler, Marina’s son, the gathering is a tense reminder of a fractured past and a present that never fully fits into the family’s uneasy orbit. Marina had left Tyler everything she had, but in a quiet act of defiance he breaks with convention: he takes the White 1972 Ford LTD and a photo album, and he leaves the house and a modest sum—$6,000—to his father Gus. With that, Tyler heads toward the coast, seeking the birthplace of Marina and the distance a solitary life can offer from the tangled web of the family he was supposed to belong to.
