Eight-year-old Garnet and his 16-year-old sister, Flower, have grown up in a deadening environment of stifled grief. Their mother died unexpectedly while giving birth to Garnet and it took the heart out of their father, Ed . When Flower pushes her father to finally become a real parent to Garnet, Ed reaches out with the only means of bonding he knows: he buys Garnet a BB gun. Ed unwittingly pushes his fragile son further toward the edge.
