Reservoir

Josh is on medical leave from NYU. He's come home to Denver to get his life together but can't manage to stay sober. Struggling with fogginess, memory loss, shame and regret, he finds unlikely allies in his four zany grandparents. Desperate for comradery, Josh resolves to bring his grandparents along with him on the road to recovery. He overwhelms them with crossword puzzles. He drags them to Jazzercise class. He forces them to eat spinach by the handful. Eventually, he slams up against the limits of his conquest. When he can no longer help his grandparents, they begin to help him. Heartbreaking and hilarious, the reservoir explores dementia and alcoholism with aching tenderness and lots of humor.
