The mother-daughter duo of "Big Edie" and "Little Edie" Beale, relatives of Jacqueline Kennedy, spend most of their lives in a decaying mansion on New York's Long Island. When the Suffolk County Health Department raids their dilapidated East Hampton, N.Y., mansion -- named Grey Gardens -- they discover more than 50 cats, raccoons, fleas, piles of garbage, human and cat excrement and no heat or running water. The department threatens to kick the pair out of the 28-room mansion before Kennedy Onassis steps in and pays to help clean it up.
