Siblings Maisie and Tony, along with their mother, gather for their sister Eileen's wedding. It is a joyous occasion, but through flashbacks, it becomes clear that the family was not always happy.

As a result, the children have grown into unhappy adults, looking for love they didn't receive when they were young.
