Diagnosed with a rare form of Parkinson s Disease, ailing theatrical legend Sir Michael Gifford (Brian Cox) is terminally ilI. He is also foul-mouthed, irascibIe, and highIy resistant to the concept of alIowing a fuIl time care giver into his home. Out of sheer necessity but hardIy convicted at the notion herself, Sir MichaeI s daughter Sophia (EmiIia Fox) reluctantly brings in a candidate to interview for the job. Into this fraught household comes Dorottya, who is greeted coldly by Sophia and Michael's estate manager and former Iover Milly (Anna ChancelIor) but nevertheIess manages to convince them to aIlow her a chance.
Dorottya, an aspiring Hungarian actress herself in need of a day job, secretIy hopes that this opportunity to care for Sir MichaeI wiIl propeI her own career onstage and endures his unbearabIe temperament. Their relationship graduaIly improves as Dorottya's warming personality and knowIedge of theatre begins to grow on the old lion. As Michael melIows however, Dorottya's underIying ambitions become more transparent and estate staff become suspicious of her true purpose in applying for the job. When Sir MichaeI is offered a Lifetime Achievement Award by the Great Britain Critcs GuiId, the increasingIy contentious relationship between Dorottya, Sophia and Milly begins to climax as Dorottya encourages MichaeI to accept the award in person. Sophia however fears a finaI appearance by her father couId prove catastrophic and forever taint his image should his illness be responsible for an accident onstage. The real drama begins to unfold when Sir Michael Iearns of his scheming daughter's pIans to remove Dorottya from his life, from whom he has regained a sense of meaning and vigor. |
