South London, 2008. Two couples find themselves at a moment of reckoning, on the brink of acceptance or revolution. Melissa has a new baby and doesn’t want to let it change her, but in the crooked walls of a narrow Victorian terrace, she begins to disappear. Michael, growing daily more accustomed to his commute, still loves Melissa but can’t quite get close enough to her to stay faithful. Meanwhile, out in the suburbs, Stephanie is happy with Damian and their three children, but the death of Damian’s father has thrown him into crisis - or is it something, or someone, else?

Das macht Michael, der sich ein aufregendes Leben ohne Kinder zurückwünscht, nur noch unzufriedener. Und da gibt es noch ein anderes Paar: Damian und Stephanie - und ihre drei Kinder.
