A lighthearted ensemble comedy about three sisters-in-law bonding over their shared disapproval of their sons' girlfriends, driven by character dynamics and comedic scheming rather than darkness or depth.

Horrified by the new girlfriends of their respective sons, three sisters-in-law – Clara, a socialite, Matis, a widowed professional, and Nena, a naive housewife – make an alliance to get rid of their undesirable daughters-in-law.
