    • A family of three - a Turkish man, a Korean/Chinese American woman, and her Korean mother with Alzheimer's disease - grapple to stay together in Los Angeles after their third IVF attempt fails, causing tension to peak at home. Meanwhile, the husband grows infatuated with a young French entrepreneur and instigates conflicts at home, searching for a pretext to leave for his new lover. However, "the" excuse he eventually finds proves to be complicated. The couple's conscience and the very core of who they are will be tested.
