Beth, a successful writer and mother, knows that her marriage to her French husband J. P. is dissolving -- and the arrival of her younger sister Vicki to her Sydney household (known as Chez Nous) only exacerbates the problems. Beth's ability to take charge of any situation and provide emotional support at first draw free-spirited people to her, but they later come to resent these very qualities, and find her competence more domineering than helpful. This seems to be the case with both J. P. and Vicki, and when Beth goes on a vacation with her father in an attempt to repair their contentious relationship, Vicki befriends Beth's daughter Annie and wins over the household with her easy-going manner. Upon her return, Beth quickly realizes that changes have taken place and new alliances have formed and that life at Chez Nous will never be the same. [More]

Shows how our most cherished relationships can wither and die from neglect, misunderstandings and a thousand little betrayals
