From acclaimed director Gabriele Muccino comes this hilarious and harrowing tale of a family that would rather brave a coastal storm than talk through their strained relationships. Featuring a stellar cast of nearly twenty actors, There's No Place Like Home begins with your average celebration, a wedding anniversary for the family's grandparents at a lavish house by the sea. Earlier in the day, unspoken tensions were held back by prepared facades, and may have stayed that way if not for the brutal seastorm that keeps anyone from leaving. With their possibility for escape gone, the family is forced to interact with each other for much longer than anyone had prepared for, and soon tensions flare. As arguments breakout between fathers, mothers, husbands, wives, exs, children and other relatives, this tale of a family gathering gone wrong makes us wonder if anyone will make it out intact.
