- Summary:
- Aaron and Vinnie Pedersen are two brothers who have been each others' shadow. Aaron, 35, has established a successful career as an actor, all the while being responsible for the care of Vinnie, 34, who has mild intellectual disabilities and cerebral palsy. This responsibility is a big challenge in the absence of professional support. "They just don't write books on this stuff," says Aaron. The film celebrates the strength of the bond that the two brothers share and have come to rely on since the death of their grandmother.
