Synopsis:

Set in post-war England, a mysterious woman arrives at the Prettys' rural family home on the eve of young Jack's 16th birthday. Her remarkable likeness to a Pretty family member who tragically died in an accident 8 years ago both baffles and unsettles the family.

Set in the head post war England of the Fifties, this touching film tells the story of young Jack following the inexplicable death of his beloved mother on his 8th birthday. His 16th birthday, in 1952, is marked by the death of the king.

As Jack Celebrates his birthday surrounded by his family, a stranger appears at the door - a very beautiful, mysterious Sweedish woman, who bears a startling resemblance to his dead mother, and whos presence would turn Jack's world upside down.
