Synopsis

A family is in danger of falling apart when small failings turn into exaggerated lies and turning a blind eye they choose not to acknowledge the responsibility of the predicament they're in, which they see as being too hard to endure.

Consequently by ignoring the truth of their situation they are culpable of NOT seeing, hearing or speaking about it. But does playing THREE MONKEYS invalidate the truth of its existence?
