The film tells a story of a widowed father and his three grown-up daughters. At the start they all three still lives at home, but that changes soon. From the start, the pacing and filming makes it directly evident that this is quality cinema, we are invited to a slow but never boring, colorful but never stressed, tale of parenthood and leaving home, and the balancing of love and loyalty both for parents and children. I just loved this, and how Lee managed to avoid drama while still inciting such strong feelings of empathy for the characters and their lives.
