Synopsis

Blackheath is a groundbreaking and sharply comic tale of life after children, revealing the awful truth at the heart of modern family life: love is not enough.

Amelia has everything: two perfect children, a successful husband who loves her, and a big house in London's affluent Blackheath. So why does she wake up one morning with a distaste for her daughter and an unexplained attraction to James, a dad she sees in the playground at drop off?

James has everything: a happy marriage to poet and fellow academic Alice and two young children. James loves his kids intensely, but caring for them during the week makes him feel like a failure. When his wife's star begins to rise, James is tempted back into his old career on the comedy circuit, looking for a way to cure his sense that something vital is missing.

As all of their lives increasingly overlap, the repercussions threaten to blow both families apart.
