Lack of close bond and mutual affection and respect between mother and young teenage daughter is the theme of this film, which nevertheless releases a certain emotion towards the end and in which John Hurt proves his great talent for the umpteenth time and the young Lily Bell-Tindley certainly convincing.

With her father out of the picture and her 27-year-old mother Rhia [Emily Barclay] working hard to make ends meet, 11-year-old Lou [Lilly Bell Tindley] often has to look after her sisters Leanne [Charlie-Rose MacLennan] and Lani. [Eloise MacLennan] worry. When there is no place for her confused grandfather Lou [John Hurt] in a nursing home, Rhia decides to let him move in with her. Because of Doyle's erratic, confused behavior, Lou doesn't like him at first. Until Doyle mistakes her for the youthful version of a deceased woman and Lou gets to know a whole different side of her grandfather. Predictable, sentimental drama with sincere, convincing acting by the three protagonists.
