A Small Part of Me

Christina's mother walked out on her when she was just six years old. Now in her early thirties, Christina has reached a desperate crossroads as a mother herself and goes on the run with her youngest in a bid to find her mother, Greta, and sanctuary from her husband and family. At times challenged and inspired by her new alien environment, Christina returns to memories of her childhood, growing up on the river in Co. Meath, Ireland, and her relationship with her stepmother, Angeline, who was once her mother's best friend. Christina begins to acknowledge the shameful reason behind her own failed motherhood and discovers a dark secret her family has never revealed.
