A tender, melancholic story of grief and cross-cultural connection between a grieving teenager and a Jamaican housekeeper whose warmth masks a troubling past.
David is a teenager whose parents are in a deteriorating marriage after their infant daughter dies. Clara is a chambermaid at a Jamaican resort who's hired to be a housekeeper.
