Tom has a lot depending on him. A successful conductor rehearsing a major new piece, he is also juggling work demands with those of his ex-partner, pregnant with another man's child. His volatile friend, and collaborator, is becoming increasingly unbalanced and his rapidly ailing parents are becoming more estranged from each other as they each become less self-reliant. His sister Ellen, meanwhile, has started an affair with a married colleague and frequently pushes her body to the limits with one wild binge after another.
