Tereza Hirsch (Czech Republic)
Regina, who is caring for her ill husband, has a family friend – a catholic priest – over for dinner. Suddenly, and without being invited, her cousin-in-law Eric (who is in a wheelchair after being in a recent accident) and his wife Victoria arrive at her home with their attorney, demanding to speak to her bed-ridden spouse upstairs. Regina however, refuses to let them see him, insisting that they discuss the matter with her instead. The lawyer – Robert – attempts to shed light on a troubling legal development the two couples appear to find themselves in after the recent death of Regina’s father-in-law and the owner and co-founder of the family’s business empire. A baby and its attempted conception, which would solidify a majority of shares as well as controlling interest in the company for one of the couples, throw both into a whirlwind of accusations, excuses, scheming, betrayal, attack plots, defense strategies and generally all-out family war between the two cousins and their wives.
