Over the River and Through the Woods is a warm-hearted comedy that focuses on the three F's of the Old World culture of this tight-knit Italian-American family: family, faith and food. Take a sentimental journey embarked upon by a 29-year old marketing executive who dutifully visits his four grandparents every Sunday for dinner. This long-standing ritual is threatened when he is offered his dream job in Seattle--far from his grandparents' house in New Jersey. A series of well-meaning schemes planned by the Golden-agers erupt with an attractive young lady offered as bait and a side serving of guilt to tell this story of a young man's coming of age.
