Description:

The era is the 1970s and early 80s and the sisters, Hannah and Carolyn Kahn, have a lot to contend with. More than anything, they face the dark cloud of their parents' fragile marriage, a workaholic father who sells insurance and a shopaholic mother who would like to leave her loveless marriage but is too scared to do so. Further complicating the sisters' lives is their status as the only Jewish family residing in their small Connecticut town.
