In their hearts, Ben and Rose want for better lives. Ben yearns to be with the father he has never met. In her fantasies, Rose keeps a scrapbook of the life of an enigmatic actress. Rose sees an alluring headline in the newspaper, and Ben finds a mysterious hint in his mother's chamber, so both kids go on frantic searches to recover what they are missing.
These two separate tales, Ben's presented in words and Rose's in photographs, are set fifty years apart and weave back and forth in symmetry.
