'Fifteen-year-old Florence is sent to live with her Deaf Aunty Janice after her parents’ divorce, where she must urgently learn Auslan language to communicate. As the red headed, tech-savvy teen, learns more about her Narungga heritage, she encounters her opposite – a reclusive, retired watchmaker, who lives a lonely existence surrounded by his priceless clock and watch collection. With a generation gap of more than 60 years, complicated grief, cultural differences and an overprotective Aunty, the curious teen and the elderly widower, clash, and challenge each other’s worldview.'
