JOE
MAMMA — A Heartfelt Comedy
He thought he knew his mother.
He was wrong.
“At his mother's funeral, Joe learns the woman in the casket
wasn't his mother at all.”
One Funeral. One Lie.
One Question He Can't Escape.
Joe is a 30-year-old man going through the motions of life in the suburbs. Then his mother dies. At the funeral, his father pulls him aside and drops a bombshell: the woman in the casket was not the woman who gave birth to him. His real mother left him on a doorstep as an infant with a note that simply read, “He is yours.”
His father, charmingly useless, admits he has no idea which woman from his past is the one. Armed with a handful of names and a growing sense of existential dread, Joe embarks on a cross-country hunt for the stranger who shares his blood — and his secrets.
Some Doors Should Stay Closed.
Joe Keeps Opening Them.
