\nWhen Daphne Fuller and her husband Jonathan visit the M etropolitan Museum of Art\, they notice an older\, white-haired gentleman following them. The man turns out to be Eddie Triplett\, her former stepfa ther\, who had been married to her mother for a little more than year when Daphne was nine. Now fifty-three\, Daphne hasn&rsquo\;t seen Eddie for ma ny years\, not since the fateful event that changed the direction of both their lives. Meeting again\, time falls away\; while their relationship wa s brief\, it had a profound impact on them both\, and now that they are re united\, they have no intention of ever being separated again.
\nWhi stler \;is a story about two adults looking back over the choices they made\, and the choices that were made for them. It&rsquo\;s a story about bravery\, memory\, the often small yet consequential moments that define our lives\, and the endless stream of loss that in time comes for us all. Beautiful in its simplicity\, it is ultimately about how love endures\, an d how the feeling of being known by one other person\, even for a short pe riod of time\, can change everything.
