After sacrificing her own dreams to raise her son, Eleanor finds herself alone and adrift in her early fifties. When Liam begins university, Eleanor, hoping to foster his independence, provides him with a generous monthly allowance. Instead of gratitude, she's met with escalating demands fueled by his desire to impress his social-climbing girlfriend. Realizing she's enabling a toxic cycle, Eleanor cuts him off and embarks on a journey of self-discovery, rediscovering her passion for art and forging a new life, free from the expectations and entitlement of the past.
