Her memory is triggered by objects and music and bits of things that cause to flash back 70 years to the disappearance of her sister. While the two things seem connected to her, to her family she is babbling incoherently. She is dismissed as a senile old woman, but she knows the clues add up. She has all the clues because theyu0026#39;re all written down on bits of paper. She also knows she hasnu0026#39;t much time left.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eAfter decades in politics, Jackson returned to acting a few years ago, and sheu0026#39;s had major success on the London and New York stages, but this is her first filmed work since her return.
