their kids.

The official synopsis reads:
The edge-of-your-seat thriller focuses on two best friends and neighbours whose perfect lives in ‘60s suburbia are shattered by a tragic accident involving one of their children. The story follows Alice (Jessica Chastain) and Céline (Anne Hathaway) as their sisterly bond is gradually undermined by guilt and paranoia and a gripping battle of wills develops, revealing the darker side of maternal love.
