Plot


After the early death of his wife, mourning father Bill Palet moves with his teenage son, Wes, across the country for a private school teaching job in southern California. At first they struggle to contain their feelings of loss, but Wes's new French teacher, Carine Roussel, stirs both toward slow change: Wes, through a homework partnership with Lacy, who's fighting depression over her parents' bitter marital collapse; and, Bill, through an unexpected liaison with Carine. Bill and Wes fight through lingering grief with Carine's and Lacy's help and begin to let go of their grief and love again, with the climactic ice cream double-date between the two couples implying happiness to be for them.
