Australian-born Karen Miles is a successful London book editor, an attractive single mother in her fifties. She has a good income, a beautiful West London apartment, regular international travel, the occasional man, and adult children she adores.
Despite the appearance of having it all, she is deeply unhappy, dreading the aging process and lacking any sort of optimism about her future. A bus pass, Karaoke and Bingo nights all loom large, she jokes. As her days become more deadening, she acknowledges that this is not the life she deserves; this is merely existence.
Despite the appearance of having it all, she is deeply unhappy, dreading the aging process and lacking any sort of optimism about her future. A bus pass, Karaoke and Bingo nights all loom large, she jokes. As her days become more deadening, she acknowledges that this is not the life she deserves; this is merely existence.
A derelict house, 'Hafan Deg', in North Wales, becomes the inspirational catalyst for her transformation. A touching and sometimes irreverent observation of an older woman's journey of reconnection and validation.
