A popular stand-up comedian and single father raises his 12-year-old son, helping him overcome the absence of his mother, who died a year after the boy was born. Father and son have struck an almost perfect balance when ‘the deceased’ suddenly returns and, forced by circumstances, becomes her own son’s childcarer. Little lies lead to absurd situations involving the three in an emotional whirlwind from which they can only emerge if they stay together.
