This Is Happening
At the behest of his father, Philip Davis travels to Palm Springs to place his grandmother, Estelle, into a home. Philip's pot dealing sister, Megan, catches wind of the trip and decides to tag along under the guise of familial support. In truth, she's got a dealer in Palm Springs who's going to sell her five pounds of pot. Philip and Meagan have no desire to spend any more time together than they must. It doesn't take long after arriving in Palm Springs that Estelle catches wind of the trip and flees to Seattle with her stuffed dog Ralph by her side. The next day, Philip and Megan wake up to discover their grandmother gone. Little does Estelle know that Megan's drug buy is wedged in her trunk. Megan convinces her brother that they must go after Estelle. What ensues is a road trip where Estelle simply tries to survive, while her grandchildren struggle to keep from killing each other. What begins as a lark becomes a journey about finding family in order to find yourself.
