It's 1962, just outside of D.C., and matriarch Phyllis is supervising her teenage children, Carl and Martha, as they move into a new apartment. Phyllis has strong ideas about what her children need to do and be to succeed, and woe to the child who finds their own path. Bolstered by gin and cigarettes, the family endures - or survives - the changing world around them. Blending flares of imaginative theatricality, surreal farce, and deep tenderness, this beautiful roller coaster ride reveals timeless truths of love, family and forgiveness.

Shortly after the death of celebrated playwright Henrik Ibsen, his widow Suzannah receives word that her husband's former protégée is in town peddling a libelous diary exposing the playwright's misdeeds.
