In the movie 'Apples Never Fall,' the Delaney family initially presents an image of a happy and successful unit. The parents, Joy and Stan Delaney, are former tennis coaches who have built a reputable tennis academy from the ground up. They have four grown-up children who have all followed different paths in life but remain close to their parents. After decades of hard work and dedication, Joy and Stan finally sell their academy, marking the beginning of their well-deserved retirement. They are ready to embark on a new chapter of their lives, free from the responsibilities of running a business and looking forward to spending more time together.
However, their peaceful retirement is cut short when Joy goes missing, throwing the family into chaos. The Delaney children, who were used to seeing their parents as a solid and unshakeable unit, are forced to confront the possibility that their marriage may not have been as perfect as they had always believed. As they begin to investigate Joy's disappearance, they start to uncover secrets and lies that their parents had kept hidden for years. The movie takes an intimate look at the Delaney family dynamics, exploring the complex relationships between the parents and children, and the impact of Joy's disappearance on each of them.
