Favourite Daughter

Zwei Schwestern. Sieben Therapiestunden. Ein Problem. Ein mitreißendes Debüt über die großen und kleinen Katastrophen des AlltagsAls die 33-jährige Mickey die Nachricht vom Tod ihres Vaters erhält, ist sie nicht sonderlich getroffen. Sie ist ohne ihn aufgewachsen, zeit ihres Lebens ist er ein Fremder geblieben. Umso überraschender, dass er ihr ein Vermögen hinterlassen hat. Der kuriose Haken dabei: Mickey muss sieben Therapiesitzungen absolvieren, bevor das Erbe freigegeben wird. Und so schlägt sie bei der Therapeutin Arlo auf, nicht ahnend, dass sie ihrer eigenen Halbschwester gegenübersitzt. Auch Arlo weiß nicht, wer sich hinter der neuen Patientin verbirgt, und schon bald befinden sich die beiden auf einem Kollisionskurs, der sie entweder zerstören oder retten wird.
