There is a summer place in Michigan that has continued to thrive for six generations. Impacted by history, anti-semitism and the oppression of Chicago's summer heat, people travel there, year after year with a common desire to be amongst friends and family. Maybe it's the beach,  the memorable sunsets, life-long friendships, dusty dirt roads and blue moon ice cream that seal their bonds. This film takes you on a heartfelt journey to the Mt. Pleasant Subdivision where you will meet the wonderful people who visit every summer in this uplifting film.
