A desperate (or desperately mad) father tries to protect his three grown children from becoming contaminated by the outside world by confining them to a surreal domestic fantasy land.
With a tall fence keeping them in, a secret telephone that only their mother knows about and a collection of cassette tapes to make all the bad words good (a ‘zombie' is ‘a little flower'), life for the three siblings is eerily sterile and constant – but it doesn't take much to send their world violently out of control.
