...disaffected child (Anna Paquin), is moping around the farm, mourning her dead mother. Tom, Amy's distracted dad (Jeff Daniels), is in his workshop creating really strange metal sculptures--basically, if guiltily, ignoring his daughter. In the barn, though, a gaggle of orphaned goslings is beginning to hatch, and we all know what that means: the geese are in for some kind of trouble, father and daughter are in for some kind of bonding, and we're in for another trip down a slope--slippery with sentimental goo--that is all too familiar.
