Overview

Margot Zeller is a short story writer with a sharp wit and an even sharper tongue. On the eve of her estranged sister Pauline's wedding to unemployed musician/artist/depressive Malcolm at the family seaside home, Margot shows up unexpectedly to rekindle the sisterly bond and offer her own brand of support. What ensues is a nakedly honest and subversively funny look at family dynamics.

How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A caustic comedy-drama where a sharp-tongued writer returns to her family home just before her sister's wedding, upending fragile dynamics with barbed observations and thinly-veiled resentments. It's less about the wedding and more about how families systematically disappoint each other.
