Description

She used to be a child, then she became a mother. Now she’s alone and something or someone is missing. When her solitude is invaded by a cacophony of other voices with other experiences and perspectives, she’s confronted with everything that she’s done and everything that she’s failed to do. A confrontation that becomes brutal but also surprisingly full of love.

How do we practise the painstaking art of understanding other people? How and when do we give and receive care? Are we simply arguing with our own inner critical voices? How do we begin to take responsibility for the times when we have failed others or ourselves?
