It’s not your typical Thanksgiving! Witness sportscasters announce the plays for a Midwestern family’s surreal holiday. The extended family’s dinner is turned into a fiercely fought competitive sport. Any tensions that arise during the course of a typical family assembly will pale in comparison with the peculiar, ultimately macabre goings-on in this dark farce about the ego-devouring aspects of family life.
