Vida and Arthur come from very different backgrounds. Arthur comes from a working class family in Wales, whereas Vida comes from a wealthy Jewish family in London. Despite their differences, they’re passionately in love with each other. They try to bring their vastly different families together during a fake engagement party, but it’s a complete disaster. The rift between their families begins to creep into their relationship, and eventually tragedy drives them apart. Can they salvage their relationship and finally bring their families together? Sensitive and touching, sometimes quirky and tragic, always uncompromisingly truthful, a fresh look at how conflicting family ties challenge love in this modern day Romeo and Juliet tale.
