A successful investment banker struggles after losing his wife in a tragic car crash. With the help of a customer service rep and her young son, he starts to rebuild, beginning with the demolition of the life he once knew.
This is a very well done drama with a lead actor performing at the top of his game. The story is emotional, intelligent and at times really funny. This is definitely worth watching.
