Seven Hills To Happiness

Synopsis:

It’s the 1990s.

The Kennedy family – BILL, ANITA, DAVE, DEAN and MARJORIE – have been selected for a brand-new TV series – a new concept known as ‘reality TV’, whereby the family will be under the intense 24/7 scrutiny of a TV crew, recording them in real time going about their daily lives.

However, it turns out that their daily lives are not all that interesting and, in the face of falling ratings, the series’ producer, BREWSTER, decides to influence the narrative in subtle, off-camera ways that create more dramatic situations.

But is he actually altering the Kennedys’ behaviour, or is he simply unmasking what was already lurking beneath the surface?  With each successive episode, the line between reality and contrivance is further blurred, ultimately with tragic consequences.
