Description |
The Benedict brothers have gone down different paths in their adult lives. Eggs Benedict is a pillar of the establishment and a senior cabinet minister. His brother Tom is cut from different cloth: his sympathies are left-wing and he works for a pittance for a foreign-aid organisation. Somehow they have managed to find equilibrium over the years tolerant of their differences. But when that balance is threatened, the two brothers must decide if blood is thicker than politics.
