Movie Background

The Kindness of Strangers

Clara flees an abusive marriage with her two sons, carrying little more than their car as they set out to rebuild their lives in New York. After the car is towed away, the family meets Alice, who arranges admission to an emergency shelter. While stealing food at a Russian restaurant called 'Winter Palace', Clara meets Marc, who has been given the chance to help the old eatery regain its former glory. The Winter Palace soon becomes a crossroads for people in the midst of personal crises, their paths brought together by circumstance and fate.
