Synopsis
Prodigal Sons is a raw and provocative examination of one family's struggle to come to terms with its past and present. Returning home to a small town in Montana for her high school reunion, filmmaker Kimberly Reed hopes for a reconciliation with her long-estranged adopted brother, Marc.

But along the way she uncovers stunning revelations, intense sibling rivalries and unforeseeable twists of plot and gender that force them to face challenges no one could imagine.
