SYNOPSIS

Throughout her life, seventy-two-year-old Bigmama has kept moving forward, striving to adjust to life in America while raising three daughters – never looking back on the abuse she endured as a teenager in Bangkok. Now retired, Bigmama lives a solitary life behind closed curtains in sun-drenched Florida. Her estranged daughters hope that she will finally be able to come to terms with her past. As they try to heal from their intergenerational family trauma, the family discovers that Bigmama's silence may have saved them all.
