Flying Lessons (2010)

At 25, Sophie Conway finds herself adrift, compelled to revisit the sleepy hometown she swore to escape. This return unearths a complex web of former intimacies, both friendships and romances left unresolved. Further complicating matters is her strained relationship with her mother, a bond fraught with unspoken resentments. Unexpectedly, Sophie finds a kindred spirit in Harry Pleasant, an Alzheimer's patient whose struggle with memory ironically mirrors her own attempts to reconcile with the past. Sophie's journey becomes a poignant exploration of memory, identity, and the enduring power of home.
