Sarandon stars as Mag Singer, a woman who is preparing to make a huge change in her life. She has just left her husband (Academy Award® Nominee Sam Shepard, Black Hawk Down, The Right Stuff) and is planning a move with her youngest son Simon (Nick Stahl, Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines, In the Bedroom) as she starts a new career. In the process of packing, she receives the news of a terrorist bombing of a U.S. Marine compound in the Middle East where one of her oldest sons, Percival, is stationed. With no news of Percival’s status, the disconnected family reconvenes in the family home to wait for information. Supporting cast includes Robert Sean Leonard (Driven, Dead Poets Society), Academy Award® winner Marcia Gay Harden (Mystic River, Pollock), Sean Astin (The Lord of the Rings Motion Picture Trilogy), Jason London (Grind, The Man in the Moon) and Matt Keeslar (Scream 3, The Stupids).
