Two lifelong best friends Roz (Robin Wright) and Lil (Naomi Watts) have grown up together as neighbours in an idyllic beach town. As adults, their teenage sons have developed a friendship as strong as that which binds their mothers.
One summer, all four are confronted by the simmering emotions that have been mounting between them. Friendships cross boundaries as the mothers each fall in love with their best friend’s son. Whilst they know what they are doing is wrong, the emotion and physical connection is too strong for all four to untwine themselves, but trouble begins to brew when one of the two young men desires a lover his own age.
‘An incredibly provocative piece of work, a brace and vulnerable performance by Naomi Watts, and a career high acting masterclass from Robin Wright.’ – The Guardian
