The Family Plot

But tensions lurk under the smooth exterior. The illusions fall away when Lucy unexpectedly becomes pregnant, her husband gets a new job at an untested start-up company and two troubled teens intrude upon their suburban home life. Throughout the next year, both Lucy and Hal struggle with their marriage, their jobs and their children, and come to drastically different conclusions about everything. But it is only when an act of violence rips through the family, does Lucy realize how far apart they really are.
