The story in this family chronicle of twenty years is conducted on behalf of the daughter Nina. Nina Eberlin comes home to visit her divorced parents and watch a photo album taken by her father and her. She reflects on how the photos illustrate the character of the family. She begins her story by reminiscing about the moment her parents learned that their son Rendoll had autism and how everyone in the family reacted to it.
Sam, a psychiatrist by profession, insisted on sending the child to a specialized institution, but the mother could not agree to it. It got to the point where they broke up. Her mother had three adult daughters by then, all "excellent children." The controversy also led Nina and her older brother Mack to overestimate their relationship to each other and their parents. It was only when Angelica realized Randall could be dangerous that a hard decision was made and the family was reunited. close

This Canadian made comedy/drama, set in Hamilton, Ontario in 1954, is a sweet and - at times - goofy story that becomes increasingly poignant as the minutes tick by. It's the fictional tale of a wayward 9th grader, Ralph (Adam Butcher), who is secretly living on his own while his widowed, hospitalized mother remains immersed in a coma. Frequently in trouble with Father Fitzpatrick (Gordon Pinsent), the principal of his all-boys, Catholic school, Ralph is considered something of a joke among peers until he decides to pull off a miracle that could save his mother, i.e., winning the Boston Marathon. Coached by a younger priest and former runner, Father Hibbert (Campbell Scott), whose cynicism has been lifted by the boy's pure hope, Ralph applies himself to his unlikely mission, fending off naysayers and getting help along a very challenging path from sundry allies and friends. close
