One of Australia's most popular playwrights takes us on an emotional trip across eighteen years of changing times in Australia.  At twenty-nine, Helen is unable to have what she desperately wants: a child.  Her younger sister Claudia gives her a wonderful gift when she agrees to be a surrogate mother.  But can Claudia really give up her child or are the bonds of motherhood just too strong?
