Everything as before

Julia Ames has finally got a firm grip on her life. After a youth full of turmoil and emotional chaos, she has reached a seemingly calm phase – a safe, settled mid-life. At fifty-seven, she believes the worst is behind her. But then, unexpected things start to appear in her life: A surprising announcement from her son. The estrangement of her headstrong teenage daughter. And, above all, the return of the past, which is as seductive as it is dangerous. It wouldn't take much for Julia to find herself back on the edge where she once stood. 'Still the Same' is a sharp and sensitive portrait of life in all its unpolished reality. It captures motherhood without embellishment, the fragility of intergenerational relationships, and the unpredictable chains of cause and effect that shape our destinies with extraordinary precision. It's a story about how we change – and how the past never truly lets us go.
