Mum's List
Directed by Niall Johnson
Produced by Studio Soho
A tender, grief-stricken true story about a dying mother's love expressed through a legacy list, centered on family bonds and the meaning we leave behind.
The story of Singe and Kate, a couple from North Somerset, whose lives were turned upside down when Kate was diagnosed with an incurable breast cancer. Over her last few days, she created her list: writing her thoughts and memories down, to help the man she loved create the best life possible for their two sons, after she was gone.
