Plot

Nine-year-old Frankie (McElhone) and his single mother Lizzie (Mortimer) have been on the move ever since Frankie can remember, most recently arriving in a seaside Scottish town. Wanting to protect her son from the truth that they have run away from his father who has caused Frankie to be deaf, Lizzie has invented a story that he is away at sea on the HMS Accra. Every few weeks, Lizzie writes to Frankie a make-believe letter from his father, telling of his adventures as a sailor in exotic lands. As Frankie tracks the ship's progress around the globe, he discovers that it is due to dock in Glasgow, his latest hometown. With the real HMS Accra arriving in only a fortnight, Lizzie must choose between telling Frankie the truth or finding the perfect stranger to play Frankie's father for just one day.
