Next of Kin follows Riley Peters during two different time periods in her life. Riley and her mother, Cassie, have moved back in together as Cassie navigates the recent death of her mother. The two of them find themselves butting heads as death becomes a more prevalent topic in their world. Three years later we also see Riley meeting Chris and forming a closer connection with him. But the walls that she put up following this time spent with her mother seem to get in the way of pursuing a stronger relationship with Chris. When torn between grief and healing, new love and distant loss, how do those left behind hold on? How do they crumble?
