In the summer of 1958, nine-year-old Susan becomes her mother’s protector in a role reversal necessitated for survival.The cycle continues as Susan
reaches adulthood. Unable to cope with her mother’s insecurities, Susan avoids facing her own problems. A huge resentment festers as her father pretends her childhood was full of love and happiness. Susan craves any acknowledgment of those miserable years in vain. At the end of his life, her father reveals his traumatic and destructive childhood; shedding some light into his emotional being as an adult. Susan forgives her father and
herself, realizing that hatred colors the soul and her life is her own.Heart Ballads
