Emma qui vient juste de divorcer déménage dans une petite ville avec son garçon, un adolescent de treize ans. Elle se prend alors d'amitié pour un vieux gérant de drugstore veuf. La vie suit son chemin jusqu'à ce que l'ancien mari d'Emma ressurgisse.

It is the late 1930s and some British households still eagerly await the arrival of electricity. When a pylon is erected in the garden, Morris's mother can't wait to show off her Swedish lumbago belt and toaster. But Morris is gripped by a deeper passion that will change his life - one that will not be illuminated for 50 years.
