Directed by Sophie Hyde
PG-13; 125 minutes

“Led by layered performances from Olivia Colman and John Lithgow, Hyde’s fifth feature is an affectionate, perceptive observation about the quiet difficulties of family, even if the picture overstays its welcome.” —Tim Grierson, Screen International

Filmmaker Hannah (Olivia Colman) takes her nonbinary teenager Frances (Aud Mason-Hyde) to Amsterdam to visit their gay grandfather—lovingly known as Jimpa (John Lithgow). But Frances’ desire to stay with Jimpa for a year abroad means Hannah is forced to reconsider her beliefs about parenting, and the stories she has long told about her family.
