After her marriage breaks down, shy schoolteacher Blithe Morrison takes refuge for the summer with her parents in the affluent Toronto neighbourhood of Rose Park. Blithe's return home evokes memories of her lifelong sibling war with Noel, her golden-boy older brother, now a diplomat posted in England.
