Juniper (M)
Juniper (M)
Self-destructive teenager Sam returns home from boarding school for holidays to abruptly discover his gin-soaked grandmother Ruth (Charlotte Gainsborough) has moved in.
A battle of wills ensues, leading Sam to embrace life again and Ruth to face her own mortality.
Sam (17) has been on a self-destructive spiral that could lead to his death. He returns home from boarding school to find his wheelchair-bound, English grandmother Ruth has moved in.
Ruth is an ex- war photographer with a lust for life and a love of the bottle. Sam soon finds himself profoundly confronted by her alcoholic wit and chutzpah. Their first meeting is awkward; their second violent.
Things get worse when Sam finds himself stranded alone with her and her nurse Sarah for the school holidays. A battle of supremacy ensues, leading Sam to embrace life again and for Ruth to face her mortality.
