Scaredy Cats in Love

Synopsis:
A close, delicately disordered world. The romantic leads impetuously move from infatuation to a marriage commitment. Their knowledge of each other deepens as one family's complex and extremely tangled needs surface. Romance disappears when a genuine and long-standing family conflict intrudes and pressures the scaredy cat lovers into a situation that demands courage. The ending is unpredictable but staisfying for those who value truth.
