My friend dead Zoe is a dark comic drama that follows the journey of merit (Sonequa Martin-Green), a veteran of the American army Afghanistan who is in contrast with his family thanks to the presence of Zoe (Natalie Morales), his own Best friend who died the army. Despite the persistence of his director of the group Va (Morgan Freeman), the hard love of his mother (Gloria Reuben) and the lightness of an unexpected interest I love. That is, until the extraneous grandfather of merit (and Harris) - renounced the family of the family ancestral lake - begins to lose the way and needs the only thing he refuses ... help. At the base, this is a friendly film on a complicated friendship, a divided family and the complex ways in which we elaborate the pain.
