Hilarious and profound, frighteningly true and delightfully surreal, this dark satire follows the malnourished and eccentric Tates family in their fierce attempt to hold on to what is theirs. As their delusions of a better life fall apart around them, the Tates careen down an inevitable path as they search for freedom, security and their sliver of Western American pie.
