Jackie is a former Miss Florida 1993 and the current wife of a billionaire David Siegel, the self-styled king of a vast timeshare empire. Jackie loves her husband, her eight children, and shopping. A leggy blond teetering on high heels, she is thrilled to show her work in progress: the largest single-family home in America, 90,000-square-foot mansion. Modelled on the palace of Versailles but arguably more lavish, it features 30 bathrooms and a skating rink. Then in 2008 the financial crisis hits. Over the next two years, their sprawling empire, fuelled by the real estate bubble and cheap money, falters due to the economic crisis. Major changes in lifestyle and character ensue within the cross-cultural household of family members and domestic staff. We witness the impact of this turn of fortune in a riveting film fraught with delusion, denial, and self-effacing humour.
