One Summer

It's almost Christmas, but there is no joy in the house of terminally ill Jack and his family. With only a short time left to live, he spends his last days preparing to say goodbye to his devoted wife Lizzie and their three children. Then, unthinkably, tragedy strikes again when Lizzie is killed in a car accident. With no one able to care for the children, they are separated from each other and sent to live with family members around the country. Just when all seems lost, a miraculous turn of events occurs and Jack begins to recover. He rises from what should have been his deathbed, determined to bring his fractured family back together. Struggling to rebuild their lives after Lizzie's death, Jack reunites everyone at Lizzie's childhood home on the oceanfront in South Carolina. And there, over one unforgettable summer, Jack will begin to learn to love again, and he and his children will learn how to become a family once more.
