Meet the Augustts: Ma and Da Jenny and Jacob and their no-nonsense Granny Mae-Anne.

Complicated as only families can be they are bound together by their love for one another and for a piping hot bag of chips. When misfortune strikes and Granny moves in they learn to understand each other anew through new stories and old memories. Sometimes in a family as complicated as the Augustts it's not always what is spoken that makes the most sense.

M for Mammy is an uplifting story about the unique comfort of home the language we can find when the words aren't there and the power of a family to heal itself.
