Brooklyn Lobster

As the festive season engulfs Frank Giorgio’s coastal community, his once-thriving seafood business faces the dire threat of collapse. The bank that had supported his ambitious plans unexpectedly goes under, leaving him burdened with a staggering debt that must be cleared in a short and unforgiving timeframe. A public auction looms ominously over Frank, testing his pride and stubbornness as they clash with the need to save his family’s livelihood.

As Christmas draws near, Frank’s son, Michael (played by…), returns from Seattle, where he has been making strides in the tech industry, along with his girlfriend, Kerry. Their homecoming is filled with bittersweet nostalgia, gradually pulling them into the tangled web of family drama. Michael soon realizes that his childhood home has been sold. His mother, Maureen, who has devoted her life to the family business, now prepares to embrace a new chapter in a rental property after the holiday season.

Time slips away, and Michael finds himself awkwardly crashing on a pull-out couch in Frank’s office while grappling with tumbling lobster crates in the bay. He also faces the challenge of repairing his relationship with Kerry following a volatile dispute between Frank and her uncle. Meanwhile, Michael’s sister, Lauren, tirelessly works to keep communication flowing among family members, having been a pivotal part of the business since earning her college degree.

As emotions run high and tensions flare, Frank’s longtime friend and loyal customer, Bill Lau (played by…), enters the fray as the highest bidder for the family property. His offer presents an enticing prospect: he and Frank could partner together to finish building the restaurant and run it side by side, potentially revitalizing the struggling venture. With the family’s future hanging in the balance, Frank must confront his inner demons and navigate a harrowing decision that could drastically change the course of their lives forever.
