A child looking for herself in her mother's face and finding it in her hands instead. That small gesture rewires everything between them, turns the thing the mom wanted to fix into the thing that finally lets her touch her daughter without trying to change her. Hands don't lie about who you are to each other.
A little girl is troubled by how little she resembles her mother, since their faces look nothing alike. Her mother, meanwhile, wishes the girl would carry herself in a more ladylike way. Yet the two do share one likeness: their hands. The girl holds this shared trait dear, and it also gives her mother a way to show her gentleness. This slice-of-life film centers on a mother and daughter and the small resemblance that draws them closer.
