    Summary:

    Bunny Best has met her unfortunate end after a mishap at a Gay Days parade. Now her two sons, Kyle and Hamilton, have the task of arranging her funeral and caring for her most beloved companion, a troublesome Italian greyhound named Enzo. In the bustle of obituary-writing, eulogy-giving, and dog-sitting, sibling rivalry quickly reaches its peak and years of buried contentions surface.The Best Brothersis a bittersweet comedy that explores the many ways in which we grieve and the love we find in unexpected places.&nbsp&nbspThe Best Brothers is a bittersweet comedy that explores the many ways in which we grieve and the love we find in unexpected places.&nbsp&nbsp"The Best Brothers feels like MacIvor's proof that pleasantness and profundity can live side by side, that a dog can be photo prop and a metaphor for life, that there is a kind of wholeness to everything.""Funny, bittersweet, tightly written and profound in its own way, Brothers is MacIvor at his best."
