Daniel finds it hard work amusing his younger sister, Gina, for the day, so his Mum can prepare for her evening 'get-together'. A straight-forward domestic story, but what lifts it above the ordinary is the quality of portrayal of the black family; their expressions speak louder than the words which are themselves refreshingly unsentimental.
