Scottish director Karen Guthrie's intimate documentary is a vivid chronicle of her coming to terms with a twofold loss, one past—of her nuclear family shattered years before by her father's departure to Africa—and one present, when her mother, the family anchor, suffers a stroke. Full of surprising revelations, Guthrie's personal story becomes an affecting and resonant look at post-colonialism and the complicated bonds of family.
