    This is the story of three women, women who fight but depend on each other also. The grandmother, a strong ferociuos character, is bedridden and is selflessly attended to by her grand-daughters. They tell each other stories and bicker, as is to be expected in any family. The grandmother is a true matriarch and is the only one who can keep the family united.
