A film about the emptiness of bohemian life and a probe into the more challenging, but all the richer, life of a loving family.
Jack lives the life of a wealthy Wall Street corporate executive after leaving his love Kate years ago. One day, however, Jack’s life turns upside down and he finds himself the father of a family alongside the love of his young days.
At first, he dreads it and looks for a way back into his life of luxury. Over time, however, he begins to realize the beauty of life with his wife Kate and their children.
After some time, he finds himself in his former life on Wall Street. That is, in the reality of life without Kate. He now sees this reality as a life that is devoid of what is essential – the love of his loved ones. He decides, however, that he won’t let it go.
