In the vein of American Beauty , Shut the Door offers a glimpse into the world of a family in crisis. It focuses on two teenage sisters struggling to carve out their identities as young adults, taking risks and undergoing disturbing transformations that go unchallenged by their emotionally absent parents. Meanwhile, their parents’ marriage is disintegrating and no longer provide, the support the girls so desperately need. Their father’s prolonged absence on a business trip provides the impetus to re-evaluate family roles and relationships - and the choices made are shocking. This evocative family portrait reveals just what happens when our support system falls away and we become disconnected from the ones we love the most.
