For the first time in 15 years, all four siblings in a family show up to care for their dying mother (Jeanie Drynan), who is only given a couple of weeks to live. One (Genevieve Lemon) comes from America with her two children. A divorced sister (Sacha Horler) also comes with her child and sneaks off regularly to meet a mystery man who may be her ex-husband. The third & youngest daughter is an unmarried nurse (Alicia Talbot) aware of her ticking biological clock. The only son (Russell Dykastra) chases after his grumpy father (Linal Haft) who seems to not care a whit about his wife's circumstances.
The four are also faced my their mother's dreams to accomplish a few things before she dies - to visit a beach she had visited in the past, to see her youngest married, and to visit Paris. She also wants to be embalmed & be honored with a 21 gun salute. Thus the whole group has to set off in the quest to fulfill their mother's wishes.
