Marjorie Davenport gibt bei dem Künstler Harry ein ungewöhnliches Porträt in Auftrag: Es soll ihre Tochter Lindsay zeigen, Studentin am Bostoner Konservatorium, und ihren Sohn Michael – der vor einem Jahr ums Leben kam. Anfangs ist Lindsay nur widerwillig bereit, Harry Modell zu sitzen. Doch während Strich für Strich das Porträt entsteht, gelingen dem Maler und dem Mädchen eine vorsichtige Annäherung, und gemeinsam begeben sie sich auf die Suche nach der wahren Geschichte hinter Michaels Tod. Ein Wagnis, das nicht nur das mühsam aufrechterhaltene Gleichgewicht in Lindsays Familie zum Einsturz bringt, sondern auch Harrys Leben für immer verändern wird.
