Actor/producer/writer Neal McDonough states, “Joe Wainwright is on a journey from America’s heartland into the hearts and souls of everyone who’s ever loved their family so much they struggled for the words to express it properly. This film has an incredible heart with a universal message of love, vulnerability, and reconciliation that the world so desperately needs right now.
