Synopsis: | Middle aged brother and sister Sadie and Eric meet after many years apart. They are to spend the night with their father's body in a funeral parlour, dressed as pantomime characters. They are obviously not happy about the arrangement but their father's will states that they must bear this humiliation if they want to inherit his considerable fortune. As the night progresses, they talk about their lives and Eric learns some disconcerting truths about their childhood. Their ordeal is lightened somewhat by the fleeting appearance of an apprentice mortician who has been left to 'mind the shop'. | |||||
