Set in the UK in the late '70s, early '80s, this family drama is based on actual events. In December 1978 in England a family is shattered by a double tragedy. Two young boys find themselves in the custody of social services and placed in a series of foster homes. Their mother seems incapable of caring for them due to her chronic depression.
