Housekeeper

The town of Fingerbone, a lakeside village in remote western Idaho, has rare wet weather, which exposes the entire village to constant disasters such as heavy rains, river flooding caused by severe cold, hunger, cold, house collapse and other disasters. The people who took care of the two little orphans kept coming and going, and they only wanted to see a complete mother in their grandmother and aunt Sylvie with her little quirks, but in the end they discovered that Sylvie only longed for a wandering journey. Lucille, the precocious sister, suddenly realizes one day that her memory of her mother has long been rotted by the intrusion of reality. She returns to daily life, and at the same time yearns for a place completely different from Fingerbone Town; Ruth and Sylvie, who are richer and more reserved in their hearts, are destined to be wanderers, spending their wandering lives in carriages. The extraordinary past has given them a rich and incomprehensible inner world. The lingering sadness in their memories and emotions made them realize that a kind of grief for the deceased that could not be comforted gradually became brighter and darker in the river of time.
