In a busy call centre, the four female employees of Aphrodite, a sex toy manufacturer, take telephone orders. Beneath the cheerful customer service and easy banter, however, these very different women nurse their own desires and disappointments.
Sylvie is desperate to have a baby, but her single minded approach is taking its toll on her marriage and causing friction with the her co-workers. With five children, Janice rarely finds time for herself or her husband. Tiffany is young and single, looking for ‘the one’, but wary of sacrificing her independence. Star employee Lily, meanwhile, is stuck in a loveless marriage and estranged from her son, but buries her pain in wisecracks and work. Ms Causeway is the kind of manager whose presence hushes a room without a word, but beneath her composed exterior lies a lifetime of restraint: a difficult relationship with her mother, and a truth about herself that’s never been spoken aloud, not even to herself.
