This is the story of Len, a young autistic man who is still struggling with day-to-day life many months after his mother’s death. He clings to the short messages she wrote for him in a diary, one for each day. The last message is “Today, you will find the love of your life, make yourself look neat and tidy…” Taking this literally, he waits… and waits at the end of the driveway. What follows is a strange and moving tale about learning to care for yourself and that someone is always looking out for you.
