Recently widowed, Mr. Jochec must take on caring for his two teenage children: Vanesa and Pete, who lives with a severe autism spectrum disorder. The film captures the family’s efforts to live a normal life, explores the boundaries of love and parenthood, and sheds light on the social support system and the lives of caregivers. Above all, it highlights the strength of human bonds in challenging times.
