A family comes together to celebrate their Mum’s wedding anniversary in this black comedy. The central character is an ageing mother, who since her husband died has carried on his building business with great success.

But unable to enjoy the nice things in life, she uses her charm to destroy everything that is good and kind.

She keeps a tight hold on her three sons by plying them with gifts and exploiting their weaknesses.

And when the family is brought unwillingly together to celebrate the anniversary, revolt is in the air…
