- Synopsis
- As a girl, Margot Winkler knew her big sister Lacey would keep her safe. Decades later, it's Lacey's home in a small New Hampshire town that has often become Margot's refuge. Lacey's life seems as perfect as it gets. She has a loving husband, extraordinary twin daughters on the brink of womanhood, and a home filled with her beautiful hand-woven textiles. But everything changes just before Thanksgiving when Lacey meets Margot's arrival for the holiday with devastating news. A rare disease is slowly robbing Lacey's ability to use language. As Lacey's words slip away, Margot struggles to support Lacey and her family while remaining close to her own wonderful man and pursuing her own dreams. Somehow, Margot must envision the future - though the past draws her powerfully. Somehow, she must find the courage to help her sister discover a new voice, while remembering the slender threads that bind them to this life and to each other. A thought provoking and gripping family drama about two sisters who must re-imagine their future - before they're ready to let go of the past.
