Chicken

A down-on-her-luck, recently single 30-something is forced to move back into her childhood home. As she reconnects with her brother who has Down syndrome, will their differences drive them apart?

When Sam splits up with her partner, she is forced to move back into her childhood home with her mother and neurodivergent brother. When depression sinks in, her brother Emmett gets in her face trying to cheer her up and in doing so makes everything worse. But when Emmett is confronted with a situation at a baseball game where he is called a chicken, Sam rises to the challenge to come to his aid and is reminded of what is truly important.
