Plot

In the heartland of Martin, Tennessee, an extraordinary family tapestry thrives, woven together by Joey, Cody, and their bright-eyed six-year-old son, Chip. The rhythms of their idyllic life, however, are disrupted when a sudden tragedy strikes. Cody, one of Chip's fathers, is tragically killed in a car accident, leaving their family shattered. Joey and Chip, left to navigate the turbulent waters of grief, struggle to regain their balance in a world without Cody. Just as they start rebuilding their lives, another blow lands. Cody's last wishes reveal that he appointed his sister as Chip's guardian, a decision that unravels Joey's acceptance into the family he had known as his own. Suddenly, Chip, the son Joey helped raise, is snatched away from him, leaving him standing alone in the echoingly empty house they once filled with laughter. In this solitary existence, Joey embarks on a quest for a resolution. Despite the legal system turning a cold shoulder, he finds solace and inspiration in the unwavering support of his friends and the lingering memories of Cody. Through these trials, Joey not only finds a path towards reconciliation with Cody's family but also forges an even deeper connection with his son, Chip. With every step, he draws closer to reclaiming his place in the family and creating a new sense of normalcy in their lives.
