When an aging widower visiting the grave of his wife, meets a troubled teenager trying to escape school, they both seem to recognize something similar to themselves inside each other. That’s how the unusual relationship begins between Maddy and Arthur, which soon expands to include Arthur’s somewhat eccentric and also aging neighbor, Lucille.

"If you’re only going to read one book this year about an aging Iowa pastor being quietly reflective, then this is the one for you! No one builds a sentence like Marilynne Robinson."

Fantastic
Amazing story kept me riveted for the whole 3hrs 30mins what a story. The ability the effects team to make aging actors look so young was seamless. Would recommend to anyone.

Movie Favorite

"Two films (one by my student Wyatt from the Murray Center at Mizzou) about aging and deep familial love. A gorgeous, heartbreaking double feature if anyone wants to have a great screening in 2019."
