Joe and Sally Therrian have a party to celebrate several important junctures in their marriage: their 6th anniversary, their decision to start a family and their reconciliation after a yearlong separation. They have invited their closest friends, their past current temptations, and (to avoid a lawsuit) their contentious neighbours.
An unexpected gift sends the party spiralling out of control and unleashes an explosion of painful confessions.

Alan Cumming
Alan Cumming was born in 1965 in Perthshire, Scotland. He attended the Royal Scottish Academy of Music and Drama in Glasgow where he studied drama for three years.
Alan made the transition from stage to screen with the film Prague, then Circle of Friends (1995) and Emma. Cumming played a major supporting role in the comedy Romy and Michele’s High School Reunion and also co-starred in the unusual tale of a woman and the gorilla who loved her, Buddy.
1998 saw Cumming’s return to the stage, in the Tony Award-winning revival of Cabaret. Cumming returned to the screen with a supporting role in Stanley Kubrick’s Eyes Wide Shut.
