Volare

Dominic’s Nonno has passed away and Nonno’s second wife, Madeleine, has invited Dominic and her granddaughter Grace to help deal with his affairs. After years of complicated Italian/Filipino/French family dynamics and dramas, the pseudo-siblings have been estranged for nearly a decade. Now, Madeleine is left with deciding which one gets Nonno’s house: Dominic or Grace. But first, she needs to get them talking to each other again. Can this fractured family take its broken pieces and turn them into something new?
