Whistler

When Daphne Fuller and her husband Jonathan visit the Metropolitan Museum of Art, they are followed by an older white‑haired man: Eddie Triplett, Daphne’s former stepfather. Eddie had been married to her mother for a little more than a year when Daphne was nine. Now fifty‑three, Daphne hasn’t seen him since the fateful event that changed both their lives. Reunited, the two find time falls away and decide not to be separated again. Whistler follows these two adults as they look back over choices they made and choices made for them, tracing bravery, memory, and the small yet consequential moments that define a life. It examines the steady stream of loss that comes with time, and how love endures: the feeling of being known by one other person, even briefly, can change everything.
