The Suit, inspired by a song of the same name written by the legendary songwriter Hugh Prestwood, follows a salt of the earth older woman and her granddaughter who go in search of the perfect suit for Grandpa, a man who has spent his life "scratchin' the earth." Together they travel the Nebraska countryside, stopping at a General Store, a fine haberdashery, and ultimately, a Thrift store where we finally learn it is the suit Grandpa will be buried in. The Suit is about how the simplest task can be profoundly important. It's about how to say goodbye when words are utterly inadequate. The many ways we express love. How we manage to continue in its absence. And the strength we find in family.
