An uptight lawyer, Lenny Rubins, (Timothy Spall), has to put his dream retirement on hold when his ailing mother (Honor Blackman) emotionally blackmails him into reuniting his estranged children for a holiday gathering.

While they might quarrel, fight, and perhaps even be starting a war in Africa, they are still family.
