这对夫妻已经结婚十年，有两个孩子。一天，妻子弗朗西斯（莎拉·杰茜卡·帕克 Sarah Jessica Parker 饰）醍醐灌顶般地开始重新审视自己的人生和紧张的婚姻关系，却发现想要一刀两断、重新开始，可没想象得那么容易。
这是一场很长很长的离婚的故事，它跟随着弗朗西斯和罗伯特（托马斯·哈登·丘奇 Thomas Haden Church 饰），讲述了离婚中收拾残局的种种——不仅仅是两个人之间的事儿，还牵扯到孩子、朋友，有公共场合的尴尬碰面，还有私下婚姻咨询的重重困难。
Based on Tamara Trottner’s debut novel of the same name, the series is a gritty story inspired by Trottner’s own life. Set against the historical backdrop of 1960s Mexico, the plot revolves around a Jewish mother in relentless pursuit of her family amid a conflict between two powerful families of the same religion. The narrative kicks off in 1964, the year Valeria returns home one morning to find her house perfectly organized, but her daughter and son missing.
