Description

When expectant father Luke begins searching for the birth mother he has never known, the stable life he shares with Hannah is unsettled by long-buried questions of identity and belonging. His reunion with Alice opens the door to a painful history shaped by 1970s London, artistic ambition, and a consuming romance with the mysterious man who became Luke’s father. As past and present converge, mother and son must confront the emotional cost of separation, the demands of love, and the complicated bonds that define a family. Clare Leslie Hall delivers an evocative, emotionally charged drama about adoption, memory, loss, and the truths that can transform everything we think we know.
