In the late 1880's, a widowed mother of three (Helene Joy) struggles to keep her family intact and to put food on the table. The oldest daughter (Tatiana Maslany) sends a letter to her estranged, very wealthy grandmother (Jacqueline Bisset) asking for her assistance, much to her mother's disapproval. When the grandmother arrives, old wounds are opened but eventually healed. From a short story by Louisa May Alcott.
“We won't have any pudding or pies this year, but we have each other, and that's what Thanksgiving is about.”
