Director and actor Mark Webber explores family dynamics using his real family as the cast and real-life situations for the story to create a film that authentically blurs the line between narrative and documentary. "Flesh and Blood" tells the story of Mark, a man returning home from prison to live with his mother and teenage brother in the inner city of Philadelphia. Attempts to rebuild his life become frustrated by struggles with sobriety, a strained relationship with his activist mother, the neglect of a teenage brother with Asperger's and a rehashed cycle of abandonment by addict fathers. A dysfunctional family tree soon emerges whose every branch is not only broken but likely unrepairable. 本片讲述了马克的故事,马克是一个刚刚出狱的帮派分子,无处可去的他只能选择回到位于费城的母亲家中。家里除了母亲之外,还有一个患有阿斯伯格综合症的十几岁的弟弟,这种自闭症让人变得沉浸于自己的世界,难与外界交流。马克试图重建自己的生活,要与过去的种种斗争,这让他和激进主义的母亲关系紧张,更让他无法与弟弟进行更好的沟通。而抛妻弃子的父亲,却总在内心深处影响着他,使他往一个自己并不想去的方向前进着。一个失控的家庭出现了,每一次争吵,都让家庭的破碎变得不可挽回,马克究竟应该怎么做?
