Description
For Alice and Hanna, growing up is a trial. Their mother's divide-and-conquer approach to child-rearing, their father's absent presence, and their older brother Michael's disapproval all shape their lives. A catastrophe that was never spoken of has also had a lasting impact. As adults, they must deal with disappointments in work and love, complicated family tensions, and lives that look vastly different from what they intended. They must repair their own fractured relationship and decide whether to submit to their dominant mother or burn the house down. This is a compelling domestic comedy about complex family dynamics, mental health, and the intricacies of sibling relationships.
