Sisters
Storyline
Suffering from a terminal illness, IVF pioneer Julius Bechly (Barry Otto) makes a horrifying confession from his deathbed: His award-winning career as a fertility specialist was propped up by the use of his own sperm. Julius' one legitimate child, well-intentioned but chaotic Julia (Maria Angelico), makes it her mission to set the record straight and compensate for her father's scandalous admission. Welcoming new siblings into her life with open arms, Julia discovers a sea of brothers, but only two sisters: troubled children's-television star Roxy Karibas (Lucy Durack) and belligerent lawyer Edie Flanagan (Antonia Prebble). Thrown together by biology, the lives of Julia, Roxy, and Edie suddenly collide. While Julia relishes the prospect of gaining new family, Roxy senses a fresh career opportunity, and Edie cannot see past the crime that has been committed.
