Three women swing from time with their fly-in fly-out lovers to time alone.
Jodie swings from one week with Pete, to two weeks without. She is strong, messy and full of heart. Can she survive the chaos and the separation?
Ella, Jodie's younger sister, swings from one week with Max, to three weeks alone. She craves attention and goes looking for it in likely places. Ella believes one week in a month should be enough for a marriage to survive.
Ella doesn't know that Max also spends one week with Lyla, who then spends three weeks by herself. Lyla has lost the blueprint that was going to lead her somewhere fabulous. She lost her mother and her bearings. With a new job researching women in violent relationships, she is trying to work it all out.
This is a story of dirt, coastal froth, loneliness, airports, fish, rosters, phone calls, mines, distance, time, country, independence, stars, laughter, sex and imperfect days.
