It's the story of the Batiste family, who live in a gothic home in Louisiana. It's set in 1962, and it's about two sisters, Eve and Cisely. The movie opens with a beautiful shot of the bayou, and we hear Eve say, "Memory is a selection of images, some elusive, others printed indelibly on the brain. The summer I
killed my father, I was 10 years old.''
