He loved the child we will never forget...

DramaFantasy

Eighty-year-old Alice Hargreaves is about to visit Columbia University to attend a reception in honor of author Lewis Carroll. As a child, Alice had a close friendship with the writer, and their relationship was the creative catalyst for Carroll's most beloved work. However, as Alice reflects on her experiences with the author, she realizes the complexity of their bond has had lasting, deeply felt ramifications.

VIBE

A tender, bittersweet journey into the past. It feels like revisiting faded photographs, where childhood wonder collides with the quiet ache of adult memory. A gentle, reflective experience tinged with the magic of imagination.
