As the trailer pellucidly reveals, the world knew about Eileen’s elder son, Charles ‘Chairleg’ Sun, a highly skilled killer cum gangster. But when her enemies discover her weak point, her younger son Bruce, who is as squishy and naive as Buzz Lightyear who initially thought of himself to be a real astronaut in a similar manner.
By the time Bruce realizes he is being, his brother Charles is already in LA to protect him and their mother. But the matriarch needs a solution and not a bodyguard, she is skilled enough to take down any killer. But for hordes of them, even she requires help.
As Bruce gets accustomed to the uncomfortable idea of suddenly having an elder, domineering, scary but caring brother, Eileen too has to face the consequences of leaving behind a son to begin a fresh, safer life for another. As the family grapples with truth and the real meaning of what being one is, it must also heal the raw familial wounds that have remained untended over the years.
