Glamorous housewife Karen hosts a dinner party for her husband's friends and their wives, Willow and Laura, at their beautiful home. After dinner the men step outside for a cigarette, leaving the three women to reluctantly endure small talk with one another. The conversation is civil. The conversation is polite. That is, until Willow and Laura begin discussing the unusual painting that takes pride of place on the living room wall - and Karen's fragile veneer begins to crack. Why is Karen so unhinged? What's with that painting? And WHEN, dear god, will the boys be back? Before the evening is through, tears will be shed, loyalties will be tested and many, many drinks will be needed. Bring out the fine china.
