Three adult siblings are thrown into chaos when their recently-widowed mother announces her love for a new man--whose motives they don’t entirely trust.
Vivien decides she’s going to sell the family home and go travelling with Mark, much to the alarm of her children and neighbor Mary.
Vivien is torn between Mark and her children--and looks to Mary for advice. Meanwhile her children uncover a darkly disturbing secret from Mark’s past which makes them fear for their mother’s life.
As doubts about Mark seep into Vivien’s mind and her children’s chaotic lives spiral out of control, family tensions reach boiling point on the night of Vivien’s 70th birthday party.
