In Her Shoes

Rose Feller, (Toni Colette) has a successful law career, but terribly low self esteem that she covers by treating herself to beautiful pairs of designer shoes. Rose's love-life is on the up for a change, but that is before the whirlwind arrival of her younger sister Maggie (Cameron Diaz)!

Maggie may be beautiful, but her looks have led to her own share of problems. Succumbing to the stereotype she is often labelled as, party girl Maggie has lived up to her reputation and her reading difficulties severely limit her career opportunities. Despite Rose's best efforts to help her sister, their old rivalries surface with a vengeance. Maggie is on a downward spiral of bitter self destruction and ruins much more than Rose's favourite pair of shoes.

Following their dramatic falling out, Maggie runs away to Miami in search of her grandmother Ella (Shirley MacLaine) who, after the death of their mother, the girls had thought to be dead. In the lively retirement village where Ella lives, the tough love from her grandmother helps Maggie find the roots and confidence she has always been looking for.

With Maggie out of the picture, Rose leaves her job to give herself time to recover from the fall-out of Maggie's betrayal. Finding solace as a dog-walker, Rose is pursued by another partner from her old firm, whose romantic persistence after Rose's heart pays off. Rose's new life may be perfect in almost every way, yet she finds that life without her sister is anything but complete. Will the two sisters find each other again to help them both find self-appreciation and happiness?
