7년 전 사고로 죽은 아이에 대한 그리움으로 일, 가족 그리고 자기 자신마저도 돌보지 않고 살아온 ‘리지’. 어느 날, 우연히 ‘롤라’를 마주친 뒤 사고로 잃은 자신의 아이라 확신하며 ‘롤라’를 향한 광기 어린 집착을 보인다. 그런 ‘리지’로부터 ‘롤라’를 지켜야 하는 ‘롤라’의 엄마 ‘클레어’. 평탄했던 그녀의 일상은 아이를 지키기 위해 조금씩 균열이 가며 무너지기 시작한다.

Tom, now in his 40s, begins to write the memoirs of his 1960s childhood, as the little boy whose mother Rose was a glamorous Shanghai nightclub singer. When Rose meets Aussie sailor Bill, they are quickly married, and she packs up Tom and his older sister May to head for Melbourne. The marriage just as quickly breaks up and Rose moves with the kids to Sydney. After a succession of male friends and little success, in 1971 Rose moves back to Melbourne, in an uncomfortable arrangement living again with Bill – and his mother. With Bill called away to sea, Rose takes up with young Chinese cook Joe, but despair and conflicts over May's relationship with Joe tear the family further apart. Little Tom is deeply hurt, but May's ongoing conflict with her mother takes a respite when Rose tells her daughter about her traumatic teenage years.
