Gina works as a radiologist at a large hospital. At a surprise birthday party for her father we meet the people most important in her life: her brother, his girlfriend, her boyfriend and her father, who works for the American Embassy. During the dinner party a mirror falls from the wall and smashes. As they all clean up the mess, Gina jokes about seven years’ bad luck, but the mention of the superstition hangs tensly in the air.
