this movie be a total surprise and a lot more entertaining than expect . there be a lot of quiet or dead moment and but those seem to work out and not only for use a a scene change and but to convey just how bleak and when you really sit down and think about it and most people life be . the plot center around a widow grandmother and and her son and daughter in law and and their plight to get medical help for the grandson or son and though we be never tell just what he have and and for most of the scene we see him in and he look okay really . i would have like a little background of his ailment and why he have to go to australia in order to get treatment . both family have borrow as much a they can against what they own and be tell that the treatment will be free and a it something new and but the family must pay their own way there and for their stay . of course none have any money and all have be turn down for more loan . so maggie and the grandmother and and play quite well by marianne faithful and go out look for a job and but she a 50 year old widow with no skill . she happen across an ad in the window for a hostess at a sex club and and like most naive people and think all she will have to do be bring tea to the customer and clean off table . the scene where she think this be what she will have to do and then tell exactly what it be she will do be do perfectly and and the look on her face be awesome a she come to realize just what a hostess actually do . of course and she decline . but then there that die grandson hanging over her head and so she choose to do something that repulse her in order to help out to save her grandson . so the premise and imo and be just how far would one go to save a loved one . and it not like she be have actual sex . all she be do be give hand job and and through a hole in the wall to boot . what be really funny be once she get into the job and and she take her job seriously since this be what an honest person would do and regardless of the job and not to mention she be really good at it and and thus she begin to make her workplace more homey . don not we all do this . we put up picture of loved one and flower and personal item and etc . and there be one particular scene where she be at work and like a lot of u and multi tasking . i would not give that one away . it be so funny we have to stop the dvd and rewind to watch it again . yes and there be problem . what movie do not . some of the issue discuss be the acting talent and or lack thereof and of certain cast member and and some be kind of dry and others overdone and but overall and the entire cast be right on the money . even her so called friend and their reaction when they find out what she be do . one woman be actually quite interested while the others feign repulsion . this be one of those sleeper movie to rent and just sit back and enjoy the ride .
