In the midst of a midlife crisis, Elisabeth inherits the family farm following her husband's sudden death. Standing up to her in-laws and taking on the immense task of a novice now running the whole operation, she plunges headlong into this new and unpredictable life, with as only allies her sons Junior, who has behavioural problems, and William, who is deaf, as well as the seasonal workers who live on the farm. Together, they will plunge into the heart of moral dilemmas, fight against hyper-controlling in-laws and live disturbing passions! While Elisabeth never really cared about the seasonal workers, they will become almost like a second family. In their respective solitude of mourning and exile, they will all find an unexpected refuge there.

Mientras intenta recomponer su vida y su identidad profesional, Suzanne descubrirá que escuchar, comprender y acompañar puede ser tan sanador como devastador. En ese territorio ambiguo, la empatía se convierte en un arma de doble filo.
