'The lesbian divorce comedy you didn’t know you needed.
'Ruth and Judith have been together for a long time. Long enough to have seen Australia change, for better and for worse. They have two bright and inquiring kids and a manageable mortgage in the Inner West. With love and hard work, they made the political personal and built a family of which they’re fiercely proud. They re-wrote the rules, and their life together is a progressive success story. Why should breaking up be any different?
'But even the loftiest ideals can come undone when pesky human emotion gets involved.'
