About this listen

In a quiet mountain town, sixteen-year-old Ethan, battling terminal cancer, spends a transformative summer with his estranged father, Jack, a former rocker with a restless spirit.

Through fishing trips, motorcycle repairs, and old vinyl records, the two forge an unexpected bond, healing old wounds and finding joy in fleeting moments. Ethan’s mother, Lydia, weaves in and out, her love a steady anchor amidst their fractured past.

As Ethan confronts his mortality, he leaves behind a letter that reshapes his parents’ lives, urging them to forgive and cherish what remains. This poignant tale of family, loss, and redemption captures the beauty of a single summer that lingers forever.
