Synopsis: | Shocked at her father's sudden death, struggling actress, Susan, has rushed home from London, where she'd been rehearsing a new play. As she and her mother, Margaret, return from arranging the funeral they are immediately at loggerheads - as ever. Even the arrival of kindly Aunt Lillian, Margaret's younger sister, can't melt Margaret's hard exterior. But as Susan privately recalls childhood memories, a shocking truth begins to emerge. Cleverly interspersing thirty years past with the present, this is a family comedy-drama with a warm heart. | |||||
