Description The story of a farming family, the Dennisons, a fiercely possessive and proud father and an equally protective but affectionate mother and their three daughters - the tragic Margaret who returns home to die, Helen returning to celebrate her marriage, and Kerry, the youngest, whose self-appointed task is to care for her ageing parents. Their home, a small isolated property in northern NSW, is the focus of their lives, but unlike Chekhov's three sisters, each wants to get away.
