Shakespeare professor Eliot Pryne is packing what he thinks is a suitcase and leaving what he thinks is a hotel. In the early stages of Alzheimer’s disease, he is “taking leave” of the real world and imagining a new one. His three daughters — a public school counselor, an actress, and a free-roaming ex-drug user — must decide the next steps for their father. This heartwarming dramatic comedy is about family, living life to its fullest, and the imminence of one’s passing, filled with the often farcical behavior that goes along with this disease. A clever, charming, and honest reflection on the true magic of life.
