This is the story of an elderly couple that are not on speaking terms, with their son (who has left the house for it) and three daughters. Its all about family relations. The family bond is not quite as strong as it used to be. People drift around a bit. The elderly woman Eileen looks down on her quiet, gentle husband Bill. Daughter Molly gets a baby and sees her husband Eddy run off. Daughter Debbie is divorced from the father Tim of her son. Tim takes the boy with him for a day, with near fatal consequences. Strong women and weak men, that´s very much the story here. The camera is a bit ´Danish´, like a videocamera, the film is grainy at times, as if this is a documentary of a real family, followed on its footsteps for three days. The film´s saving grace is the good music, and London which is the background of the movie. London is bigger than its people, it seems. There are so many opportunities there for another relationship, a sexual encounter, why stick to your partner...
