The void in his life slowly destroying him and his relationship with his young daughter.�Florence, supported by her carer Jessie, craves one more adventure to round off the last 80 odd years.�Violet needs a focus, a new identity, until she has the confidence to escape her grim reality with abusive husband, Ben.�Cara is lost, with nowhere to call home and no one to go home to, now she's aged out of the care system.�Will this mishmash group fill each other's souls as well as their plates?
