When Sophie is on her own, she nav­i­gates new friend­ships and expe­ri­ences. As they enjoy their time togeth­er, lay­ers of melan­choly and mys­tery rip­ple through Calum’s behav­ior. Twen­ty years lat­er, the mem­o­ries take on new mean­ing as Sophie tries to rec­on­cile the father she knew with the man she didn’t.
