THE FAMILY KEEPS IT ALL casts a hopeless, exaggerated and partly grotesque glance at the family in the upper middle class. The intact ideal world - longed for by the mother but arduously held together - breaks into pieces when her fifteen-year-old son has an obituary for her placed in the local newspaper.
