Peace, Love and Misunderstanding: Synopsis

Academy Award® nominated director Bruce Beresford delivers a career-defining performance from Jane Fonda (Emmy® and two-time Academy Award® winner) in Peace, Love and Misunderstanding. For uptight Manhattan lawyer Diane (Keener), crazy means driving her teenage son Jake (Nat Wolff) and adult daughter Zoe (Olsen) to visit their grandmother Grace (Fonda). The crazy part is that the kids have never met Grace. In fact, Diane hasn't spoken to her mother in twenty years. Grace is the epitome of the term “hippie”: she stages protests and hootenannies in the town square, smokes (and sells) a lot of dope, and howls at the moon once a month with her goddess-worshipping girlfriends. But what’s meant to be a weekend getaway turns into a summer adventure of romance, music, family secrets, and self-discovery. Peace, Love and Misunderstanding is a heartfelt comedy and a story about second chances and the things that divide and reunite families.
