With impeccable timing, a middle-aged man (Breckin Meyer: Road Trip, Clueless, Changeland) on the verge of ending his own life receives a huge inheritance. His instant wealth coincides with a likable young woman and her precocious young daughter entering his pleasure-free life. As his feelings for the two grow, his plan to have the money go toward caring for his abusive, mentally-disturbed mother starts going by the wayside. THE ENORMITY OF LIFE is a tender comedy about misery and a heart-wrenching drama about the things that make us reluctantly laugh.
