Miles and Ellie are two teenagers in love when a youthful misunderstanding breaks them apart. Flash forward 20 years and a disenchanted Ellie has come home for what she expects to be a typical dysfunctional family Thanksgiving. Not long into the family shenanigans, however, Ellie learns that Miles is still in town and carrying a torch for her. Is it possible to get a second chance at your first love? This charming romantic comedy will make you wonder "what if?"

Directed by Guy Sanville, the cast includes Rusty Mewha (Plymouth, MI), Michelle Mountain (Grass Lake, MI), Rhiannon Ragland (Flint, MI), Bill Simmons (Indianapolis, IN), and Cheryl Turski (Royal Oak, MI).
