Four Terrible Parents

What happens when the dream of starting your own family turns into a nightmare?

Valentine and Raul have been touring in their indie-sleaze band SEZME since their college days, but as they enter their early forties priorities change. It''s time to move out of Berlin and start settling down. Raul is ready to marry his boyfriend, Banner, and Valentine wants to start a family with her on-and-off-again partner, Linh, but still keep the band together.

Determined to piece together the perfect life of domestic bliss and artistic pursuits, Valetine begins planning. When she inherits the crumbling Southern gothic hotel she grew up miserably in from her late father, it feels like fate. Convincing Raul, Banner and Linh to join her in renovating the hotel, she begins to dream of an idyllic queer family life in the childhood home that brought her so much grief.

But as the four of them navigate their new home and welcome a daughter, August, into the world, their relationships start to sour. On the night of the hotel''s grand opening, what''s meant to be an evening of celebration turns into a nightmare as August goes missing and soon the parents turn on each other. And then the world turns on them.

Stylish, twisty and laced with dark humour, Four Terrible Parents is a story of power, love, and starting again.
