Janet, a prominent British politician in the Parliamentary opposition party, has just been announced as shadow minister for health. She has invited her friends to a small celebration at her house, including April, April's estranged German partner Gottfried who is a life coach and self-proclaimed spiritual healer, women's studies professor Martha and her partner Jinny who is a renowned chef, and Janet's colleague and subordinate Marianne with husband Tom, a handsome younger banker. Janet's husband Bill slumps in his chair listening to jazz, staring vacantly, and heavily drinking as the guests arrive.
