After Iris

(2) 4-6 British middle-schooler Blue Gadsby and her siblings live in a world of unrelenting domestic mishap. Behind the foreground rumpus is the shadow story, revealed through flashbacks, of the death three years earlier of Blue's twin sister, Iris. Two new arrivals, Zoran (their overwhelmed babysitter) and Joss (a new boy at school), become the catalysts for the Gadsbys to finally confront their sorrow.
