Is mental illness 100 percent genetic, or is it just contagious? Consider the Day family: Stormy Day’s mother vanished when he was born, which was years before his unusual sisters -- Sunny and Holly -- mysteriously arrived. His father Lucky is an eccentric, alcoholic, one-armed ex-prize fighter who is determined to carry all of the family secrets to his imminent grave beside his own father, who isn’t actually dead. But none of that works out. A series of coincidences sprout up in the back seat of Stormy’s Boston taxi cab, and then blossom into a bizarre family reunion and a wild conspiracy to defraud the state lottery for $26 million dollars! “Synchronicity” is what Dr. Carl Jung called life-altering events which have no direct cause. He suggested that when something can’t possibly be a coincidence, it probably isn’t one. And so this story is not about coincidences.
