false 430074 2 In the vein of American Beauty, Shut the Door offers a glimpse into the world of a family in crisis. It focuses on two teenage sisters struggling to carve out their identities as young adults, taking risks and undergoing disturbing transformations that go unchallenged by their emotionally absent parents.
