A compassionate supervisor at a foster care home supports teenagers facing difficult circumstances. When a new arrival brings painful memories of her own past to the surface, she must confront the strain beneath her steady exterior while continuing to care for the young people around her.
My takeYou may like this intimate, emotionally powerful drama if you value believable characters and moments of warmth amid difficult experiences; Not for you if you want light viewing or a fast-moving plot.
