Frankie (Jack McElle) moves to Scotland with his mother Liz (Emily Mortimer) and grandmother. At the age of nine, he is a deaf child, smart and sensible, and full of expectations for his father. He often wrote to the crew's father and hung the nautical charts of his father's ship. But he didn't know that everything was his mother's white lie, which made up everything about his father. in fact, they moved everywhere just to get rid of their father's cruel domestic violence. And every "reply from the father" was written by Liz in order not to make the son sad. Frankie learned that his father's ship was about to dock and wanted to see his father. Liz did not expect that such a ship really existed and could not bear to tell her son the whole truth, so she had to find a strange man (Gerald Butler) to pretend to be her father with the help of a friend. The lovely Frankie liked him very much. The three of them got along well, and just as the "husband" was about to leave, Liz told him that Frankie's deafness was due to the violence of his real husband. And they also seem to have a seemingly non-existent relationship. Liz refused her dying husband David's request to see his son, and soon she told Frankie that his father had passed away. Liz got it again.
