Description
The quiet life of lonely nonagenarian Algernon is turned upside down overnight when his estranged daughter Helena finds temporary refuge with him, along with his nearly sixteen-year-old granddaughter Anna, whom he is meeting for the first time. The quirky girl, who loves to dress in bright colors and draw pictures on her skin, occasionally drives her old-fashioned grandfather up the wall, while the grumpy old man intimidates Anna a bit. In their small country house, the shadows of the past come alive – both good and bad memories. Can these seemingly different people representing three generations under one roof find not only common ground but also a home? A colorful, humorous, and touching story about intergenerational relationships and how, despite adverse circumstances, to take life by the right end.
