Old, white, and conservative -- that's Old Man Keller. He gets all his information from right-wing talk radio, and loves teaching his grandson to drive his gas-guzzling Cadillac. But when the Old Man refuses to retire and hand over his custom window company to his daughter, this modern-day “King Lear” loses control of his business, his family, and his mind. Early dementia throws things into a tailspin, as a daughter’s struggle for love and recognition comes up against secrets, lies, and betrayals. A tale that resounds in our post-election hangover.
