58岁的母亲吴艾草（潘丽丽饰）跟其他台湾师奶别无两样：膝下一双儿女，生活清闲平静。早年间曾与异乡老师私奔，可算是思想开放的女性。然而她在不经意间发现了小儿子宋海（莫子仪饰）举止异常，种种迹象都证明儿子是名同志。面对儿子的离经叛道，艾草并没有道破，但也使她无所适从，困惑不已。此时，留学而归的大女儿宋伶（周姮吟饰）居然带回了跟黑人所生的私生女。这时的艾草再也按耐不住，长年建立起来的伦理观瞬间崩塌。作为一名母亲，她不能接受这种违背社会道德的行为。面对社会舆论的压力，艾草的内心陷入苦苦的挣扎中。最终，她会接受子女的选择么？

A woman who believes she chose an unconventional path in her life is startled to find her children are stepping father beyond society's boundaries in this drama from Taiwanese filmmaker Chiang Hsiu-chiung.
