Details: Four lost souls - a disgraced TV presenter, a foul-mouthed teen, an isolated single mother and a solipsistic muso - decide to end their lives on the same night, New Year's Eve. When this disillusioned quartet of strangers meet unintentionally at the same suicide hotspot, a London high-rise with the well-earned nickname Topper's Tower, they mutually agree to call off their plans for six weeks, forming an unconventional, dysfunctional family, becoming media sensations as the Topper House Four and searching together for the reasons to keep on living. On New Year's Eve, in London, four individuals find themselves, by coincidence, on the roof of a fourteen-storey building, all with the firm intention of jumping to put an end to a life that has become intolerable. First comes Martin, a star television presenter whose career and family have been shattered by a sordid and resounding scandal; then Maureen, a simple woman, fervent Catholic nevertheless ready to commit the greatest of sins, because she can no longer take care of a handicapped son alone; then Jess, 18, suffering from severe heartache, full of bitterness (and alcohol); And finally JJ, a young American whose dreams of becoming a rock star have disappeared, and who finds himself devastated by a precarious situation as a pizza delivery boy. This quartet has in common only despair... and a little hunger. And here are two pizzas, brought by JJ... Tongues are loosened, everyone recounts their life, their disappointments; Finally, the dawn coming, they decide to postpone, and meet on Valentine's Day, in the same place.
