“Are you giving me any choices here? Or are my only options living with a rasha in my house or living in your house with you?”

Esther Shapiro, barely 90 years young, is perfectly capable of living on her own, and is determined to do so even after a life-altering fall. She refuses to give up the fight to move back home.

The matriarch of a loving and devoted family, Esther tries to hold on to her independence as tightly as she holds on to her secrets. And there are many, many secrets.

Join cranky and wry Esther in her poignant struggle, and root for her as she falls—and rises again.
