Away We Go (2009)
Verona De Tessant and Burt Farlander, in their early thirties in the Denver area and struggling to meet daily needs and build fulfilling lives. Learning they will soon become parents, they are confronted with the challenge of how – and where – to raise a child and build a happy family. Six months into Verona’s pregnancy, they visit their only family in the area, Burt’s parents, Gloria and Jerry, only to find that they have decided to move to Antwerp, Belgium, a month before the baby is due. They will be gone for two years and they have already rented their place to another couple, despite Burt’s and Verona’s situation. Frustrated with their selfishness and careless attitude, Burt and Verona decide this is an opportunity to find somewhere else to raise their family, as they both can work from home and live wherever they choose.
They first visit Phoenix, Arizona, to see Verona’s old boss, Lily, her husband, Lowell, and their two children. Burt in particular is disturbed by Lily and Lowell’s crass and mean-spirited behavior toward one another and their children. Burt and Verona next visit Verona’s sister, Grace, in Tucson. At Verona’s request, he tries to persuade Grace to stay with her boring boyfriend. When Burt takes a call and displays his trademark humor, Grace tells Verona that she is lucky to have him and Verona agrees.
