When tragedy strikes in the lives of two young girls, claiming the life of their father, envy takes hold. Childhood memories fade, and spite replaces the once immovable bond between Matilda and her sister, Charlotte, as the years go by. One settles for a traditional life with her husband and kids, burying the punishment and shame of her past, while the other cultivates a career set in the early days of feminism, pursuing work as a nurse during the birth of World War II.
Both spend their days reveling in a facade of happiness. But after reality strips away their youth and they face the onset of another era, tainted wounds still mark their hearts. Are family ties enough to overcome life's arduous trials?
