Mammary Manor

In the opulent yet dysfunctional Mammary Manor, the eccentric matriarch Agnes attempts to maintain control over her sprawling family and their increasingly precarious fortune. Her schemes are constantly thwarted by her rebellious children, a conniving business partner, and the arrival of a mysterious stranger who may hold the key to their past. Amidst lavish parties and simmering resentments, the family grapples with love, betrayal, and the absurdity of their own existence.
