End Of Sentence (On Demand)
Frank Fogle made his dying wife a promise that he
intends to keep: She asked him to take their estranged
son, Sean, to Ireland, where she grew up, and spread her
ashes across the waters of a peaceful, remote lake.
Frank announces this plan to Sean right after Sean is
released from prison. Sean's only wish is to start over
on the West Coast, but he agrees to the trip when his
father promises to pay for his ticket to California once
they return to the States. His father also promises to
stay out of his life forever. Yet, Ireland isn't at all
what the two men expected, especially after their
unresolved issues rise to the surface because of an old
flame, a wake and a beautiful hitchhiker.
