The Plot: It’s the story of three Jewish widows in Queens, New York, each in a different stage of healing and moving on with her life. Once a month the three women - Doris, Ida and Lucille - meet to pay their respects to their husbands, who are all buried in the same cemetery.
Doris is content to have loved her husband well and seeks nothing more than simply to go on remembering him. Lucille has quickly dismissed the loss of her late husband and aggressively searches for a new man. Ida is in the middle of these two opposites.
The women are bound together by hurt, healing and the discovery that they are more alike than they believed. It’s a story of emotional strength and endurance.
