As an Indian lesbian living in the United Kingdom, the cards are stacked against Geetika from the start.

A family seen at two different periods, some 40 years having passed between the two. A dysfunctional family marked by what used to be called an ugly illness, cancer and death.

A family marked by relations of rejection, love and hate of the other, the upstairs neighbors, those strangers from a far-off land, Andalusia in the 1960s, Morocco at present, who will also form part of this repetitive game that is life.

In the pilot, Britney and Mikaela’s day goes off the rails pretty fast.
