Eleven-year-old Sophie and her father, Calum, spend a vacation together at a Turkish resort - a precious time, since Sophie otherwise lives with her mother. The relationship between father and daughter is close, but a certain inner absence of Calum keeps creeping into the relationship. Director Wells also flashes images of the adult Sophie, now a parent herself, in her feature-length debut. A melancholy (retrospective) look at a childhood.
