Karen is forced out of the home in which she raised her son, and has lived for decades. When she learns that the house has been turned into a Airbnb, and now hosts a shifting group of transient wanderers, she decides to join them. With a cast ranging in age from 12 to early 70’s, HOUSE OF KAREN explores belonging, displacement, hope, and the way we shape modern communities.
