Synopsis
The true meaning of fate, identity, and marriage are called into question as a surprising, hilarious web of secrets unravels in this ridiculous - potentially murderous - uncharacteristically feminist, 1923 British tale of sex, betrayal, and oh yes, love...when Sylvia Van Kipness decides to expose her love affair to her husband and her lover's wife.
