God Will

Do the Rest

In the wake of her divorce, Connie—the black sheep of the de Dios family—is back in her childhood home after being estranged for almost two decades. But a de Dios doesn’t forgive or forget. When the whole family—her tough-as-nails father, wayward son, bougie sister with the white doctor boyfriend, and flamboyant favorite aunt—all gather to celebrate her glamorously overbearing mother’s milestone birthday, what could possibly go wrong? With Santo Niño prayers, karaoke, and chicken adobo, God Will Do The Rest exposes the complicated ways Filipino Americans grapple with their love and duty to family.
