Five sisters decide to make a video for their parents' 40th wedding anniversary. Despite family loyalty, they quickly start competing with one another and become embroiled in a confrontation. Old and sometimes painful memories resurface. We gradually learn they share a secret concerning their father's mysterious absence, which lasted for 18 months. In fact, no one knows why he disappeared, but each of them has her own little idea. One of them, it seems, knows more than the others. When they combine their energies, they can achieve euphoric high points and a fragile unity. But when they turn against each other, pitched battles ensue.
