Set in 1960s Los Angeles, the movie follows Mr. Church, a hired cook who has to take care of a young girl's mother who is fighting cancer. It follows the relationship between Murphy and the girl (Britt Robertson) and all the daily battles they must get through together.
The Cinelou Films movie actually made its debut at the Tribeca Film Festival back in April but will be released in theatres in September.
According to Uproxx, it will eventually be available to stream via Amazon Prime Instant Video.
