A mother and her two daughters return home from their father's funeral not quite ready to move on. One daughter is struggling with her boyfriend, the other wants to literally go to the moon, and mom just wants to live on and be a good host to the unknown Japanese woman she ushered home from the cemetery. Originally a commission from The Kennedy Center to celebrate the centennial of President Kennedy's birth, To Tokyo & The Moon invokes his spirit of "doing the hard thing... because that is the challenge we are willing to accept."
