About Karen (Shirley Henderson) is raising four children while her husband Ian is prison for a crime that is never addressed in the film. She juggles the demands of her life as a bartender, a mother and a wife who must frequently travel by train to visit her husband Ian in prison. Their separation becomes increasingly difficult as the children begin to grow and temptations lurk. Still they try to keep things going. Shot over five years at 2 week intervals, the film feels spontaneous, alive and full of off-the-cuff moments. (c) Sundance
