Millions of years ago, dinosaurs inhabited a lush landscape until their extinction occurred. This marked the end of their reign and set the stage for the subsequent Ice Age.

As the Ice Age came to a close, the land transformed into a green landscape once more. This revival paved the way for new inhabitants to call the area home.

The area eventually became home to the Lenni-Lenape people, who thrived in the fertile land. The story begins to follow the lives of a man and woman within this community.

The narrative details the courtship between the man and woman, showcasing their love and shared moments. This segment also highlights their family life before tragedy strikes.

The woman's death brings sorrow to the man and the community, marking a poignant moment in their lives. This event profoundly affects the trajectory of the man's future.

Following the Lenni-Lenape era, the land became part of the estate owned by William Franklin. He was the illegitimate son of Benjamin Franklin and served as the last colonial governor of New Jersey.

Around the turn of the 20th century, a significant home was constructed on the estate. This house would become the central setting for many events in the film.

John Harter and his wife, Pauline, were the first tenants of the new home. Mr. Harter's obsession with flight defined his character, but he later succumbed to the Spanish flu.

In the 1940s, a bohemian couple, Leo and Stella, took residence in the home. Leo, an inventor, created what would later become the La-Z-Boy recliner during their stay.

In 1945, the Young family, led by Al and Rose, purchased the house after World War II. They raised three children, Richard, Elizabeth, and Jimmy, creating lasting memories in their new home.

At the age of 18, Richard faces unexpected challenges when he gets his girlfriend, Margaret, pregnant. They marry and continue their lives in the house, raising their daughter, Vanessa.

In the early 2000s, Richard and Margaret experience marital strife leading to their divorce. Following this upheaval, Richard sells the home that holds so many family memories.

The house finds new occupants in Devon and Helen Harris, along with their son, Justin. The family faces heartache when their beloved housekeeper, Raquel, dies of COVID-19.

Amid the challenges of the pandemic, Devon and Helen decide to sell the house. This marks the end of another chapter for this historically rich residence.

In 2024, Richard, now an elderly man, brings Margaret, who suffers from dementia, back to the empty house. He reminds her of a cherished memory involving their daughter, which starts to trigger her recollections of their life together.
