Two sisters, Winnie and Tomi, try to reconnect after an estrangement when their mother becomes seriously ill.  Winnie is half African-American and a celebrity stand up comedian, who has been cancelled.  Tomi is half Asian-American and an elementary school art teacher who stayed in her hometown. The sisters clean Mom's house as they also try to accommodate Mom's last wishes, including a comeback show for Winnie and a hospital wedding for Tomi.  Painful memories resurface as they sort through familiar objects from the past, and they try to make sense of familial love and its entanglement with racism and favoritism.
