After six decades living abroad, octogenarian Helen Cartwright returns to the small English village where she grew up. Her husband and son have both passed away and Helen shuffles around in her quiet routines, content to pass away herself when the time comes. Then one day, a chance encounter with a little mouse changes everything. As Helen cares for and bonds with the small creature, she finds her life blossoming in many unexpected ways. Sipsworth is a graceful celebration of friendship, late-in-life new beginnings, and the powerful reverberations love creates.
