As Maureen Callahan lays on her death bed, her two adult daughters, Mary and Nancy, argue over who will inherit their mother's fur coat. What could go wrong? Matriarch is a dark comedy set in small town New England. Mary and Nancy struggle against each other, each of them trying to prove their love for their mother in their own way. A subtle comedy about stubborn women and power dynamics within families, Matriarch is a story about dealing with grief, pride, and loneliness: a coming-of-age tale for people who should have grown up a long time ago.
