As a hard-pressed family struggles to get home after a days shopping, a young girl discovers that mum doesn't always know best. Sweetie follows seven year-old Tash and her family - mum Lynn, dad Kevin and little brother Ewan - as they attempt to catch a bus home after a day out at the local shopping centre.
