Just 10 minutes into the movie and already a lot has happened. A small girl "Gertie", whose mom dies right after giving birth, has only her dad to take care of her. The dad who is in a trauma of his wife's death, finds it very hard to raise her and be a good dad. He loses his job and is forced to move in with his father. His father take care of his daughter for a few days but after realizing that his son is being ignorant about his daughter, he forces his son to take care of his daughter. He is forced to take a job of a handyman picking up trash. He keeps trying more interviews but nothing goes his way. He takes good care of his daughter. Finally something his way, he gets a job in the New York city and plans to move there with his daughter. But the daughter is too attached to the grandpa to leave him. A big fight and finally she agrees to move with wit his dad. But emotional attachments withing the family makes them to stay together. He also finds a new girl for himself.
Also, some wierd incidents with the girl and a friend of hers shows their innocence. The little girl is the best character in the movie, her acting is adorable. The movie is just a one time watch, as it might make you cry in the 1st 10 minutes. But the rest of the story is pretty light. If you like slow movies, then you might like this one.
