Description: | Select Guide Rating A Scots family drama of three generations chasing dreams and happiness – when not everyone is quite who they seem Kate and her Granny Jean have nothing in common.

But what Jean’s Glaswegian family don’t know is that she dreamed of being a film star and came a hairsbreadth away from making it a reality. Now in her nineties, Jean is a force to be reckoned with. But when the family starts to fall apart Jean must face her failings as a mammy head-on – and Kate too must fight her demons. Either that or let go of her dream of the silver screen forever... |
