Two-time Oscar nominee Brenda Blethyn stars as Grace Trevethen, whose late husband jumped out of a plane without a parachute. Grace has been left with a manor on the Cornish coast - and a mountain of debt. Now, with creditors and repossessors at her heels, Grace is faced with the prospect of losing everything. When asked to tend an ailing, if illicit, plant belonging to her caretaker Matthew she gets an outrageous idea. Why not use her renowned green thumb to make some serious money and pay off her debts? Taken with the idea, Grace and Matthew transform her orchid hothouse into a lucrative enterprise of another kind. In spite of the old adage that crime never pays, Grace's situation proves otherwise in an adventure that inspires personal liberation, a touch of romance and delight for all.
