Description A cranky old rancher was never one to welcome visitors but then one night hundreds show up for dinner.
For over a century, the historic Mazzetti Ranch has hugged the coast of Central California.
Its owner, Teddy, has never been one to welcome the occasional visitor, not even those seeking out his well-regarded grass-fed beef or domestic abalone.
But in a moment of weakness, he has agreed to allow an outside firm to host a dinner for over two hundred people on his beloved cliffs.
Little does he know that this event will draw out the attendance of both friends and foes, long term and new.
Faced with the uncertainties of his future and lost opportunities of his past, Teddy Mazzetti just needs to find the strength to survive this Long Table Dinner.
And maybe, just maybe, he will learn that there's more to life than the valley of beloved coastline.
