Things are so bad this year that they cannot even afford a turkey for their Thanksgiving dinner.

Suddenly, Mary's wealthy and estranged mother Isabella (Jacqueline Bisset) comes to visit. Although she finds a kindred spirit in Mary's eldest daughter and budding writer Tilly (Tatiana Maslany), Mary resents her mother's attempts to help them out of their financial difficulties.
