About this listen

A childless couple takes in a mysterious, neglected young boy who emerges from the woods and into their garden one afternoon. Although they bring him step-by-step into their home and into their lives, they find that they know no more about him. This is a story both tender and disquieting about responsibility, boundaries and love.
