Catherine St.John-Burke is an independent, uptight, status obsessed, sophisticated, British woman, living alone in London’s Chelsea, and doing herself no favors by having an affair with a married man. Her world is turned upside down when she comes home one day to discover an uneducated, Kiwi woman (with very hairy legs) drinking beer in her living room. Shirley Zachary claims to be Catherine’s long lost half-sister and that their father, who Catherine thought died when she was a child, is still alive and trying to make claims on both of their properties following the death of their mothers! Furious and frustrated with Shirley’s refusal to ‘disappear’, Shirley reluctantly agrees to undertake a DNA test.

With no job and no relationship — and no prospects for either — twentysomething Webster (Maclain Nelson) opts to start over. He heads to his childhood home and climbs up a tree, where he plans to stay the entire summer in a house of his own creation. Not surprisingly, Webster captures the attention of his neighbors, who soon find that they have a stake in his mission as well. Jacob and Michael Hamblin helm this quirky comedy.
