The Descendants is a beautiful story of a land baron tries to re-connect with his two daughters after his wife suffers a boating accident. With his wife Elizabeth on life support after a boating accident, Hawaiian land baron Matt King takes his daughters on a trip from Oahu to Kauai to confront the young real estate broker, who was having an affair with Elizabeth before her misfortune.
