Almost forty years ago, a young girl of
fourteen has sex, gets pregnant, and gives her baby up for
adoption. Fast-forwarding to the present day, we meet three
very
different women, each of whom struggles to maintain
control of their lives. There's Elizabeth, a smart and
successful lawyer who uses her body to her advantage.
Any
time she feels that she doesn't have the upper hand, and
cannot control the situation, she uses her sex appeal -
whether that be starting a romance with her
boss when she
suspects he is trying to start one himself, or finding some
way to control her overly friendly neighbor and husband.
Karen, meanwhile, is a bitter
health care professional who
obviously has a lot of heart but never shows it. She gave up a
daughter at the age of fourteen (wonderfully shown rather than
told,
she is the young girl and mother of Elizabeth), and
has never gotten over it - her bitterness inspiring her to lash
out at everyone around her... |
