A young girl called Nelly is visiting her mother's childhood home, while her parents clear out the house. Nelly's grandmother has just died, so the whole family is sad, trying to come to terms with the loss. Nelly has heard lots of stories about this place, such as the time her mum built a den in the woods behind the house when she was a child. One day, as she is out exploring, Nelly meets another little girl called Marion, who looks strangely familiar and discovers a perfectly-formed woodland den. The children become friends. Made by French filmmaker Céline Sciamma, whose writing and directing credits include My Life as a Courgette, Tomboy, and Girlhood, this tender, fable-like film bridges a generational divide and explores themes of childhood, growing up and bereavement with empathy and a touch of magic.
