- On the surface, the Greenes are a fun-loving family of performers. Dave, the father, is an Elvis impersonator. The mom, Roxie, is a writer. Quinn, the eldest son, is an actor, and his little brother Kane is a beat-boxer. But underneath, they have a secret. The Greenes are fighting an ongoing battle with mental illness. Dave is a hoarder; Kane suffers from anxiety and suicidal thoughts; and Roxie's long history with bipolar disorder has taken its toll on her body, leaving her on the brink of collapse. Quinn, the family caretaker, sacrifices his own personal ambitions to help the others - particularly Kane, who can barely get out of bed let alone hold down a job. But Quinn is ready to start talking and end the secrecy surrounding his family's mental health. He wants to share their story and start looking at real options for getting help for Kane, whose condition is getting desperate. And he wants to work towards a brighter future for all of them. The question is, can he convince the rest of his family to join him? Bringing Down the House is an intimate, emotionally charged portrait of a family struggling to break free from the clutches of mental illness. This is a film about love, life, legacy, and hope, as the Greene family embarks on a quest to build a better, happier future.
