Synopsis

It has the old family-gathers-for-communal-celebration plot, in this case the two Jewish-American sisters Pfeni and Gorgeous arriving in London to celebrate the 54th birthday of their eldest sister Sara, an atheist expatriate and London head of the Hong Kong and Shanghai Bank.  Gorgeous is a bubbly housewife and radio personality from Newton, Massachusetts, and Pfeni is a conflicted globetrotting journalist just flown in from India.
