The Lake
Created by Julian Doucet
On Prime Video
A warm, character-driven comedy-drama about family reconciliation and second chances set against a summer cottage backdrop, balancing humor with genuine emotional stakes around belonging and repair.
After returning from abroad after a break-up with his long-term partner, Justin plans to connect with his teenage daughter he gave up for adoption. His plans to make new memories with his daughter at the family cottage go awry when he discovers his parents left it to his picture-perfect step-sister, Maisy-May.
