Miss You Already

In the rolling countryside of West Yorkshire, two women who have grown up side‑by‑side find their lives converging once more at a pivotal moment. Milly, a rock‑star’s wife with a seemingly settled existence, and Jess, an impassioned environmental activist, share a history thick with laughter, secrets, and the kind of loyalty that feels almost familial. Their world is one of ordinary comforts—cozy homes, bustling family life—painted against the backdrop of a region that has inspired poets and dreamers for centuries.

When Milly receives an unexpected breast‑cancer diagnosis, the news reverberates far beyond the clinic’s walls, pulling both friends into a delicate balance of uncertainty and resolve. The tone shifts to a tender blend of humor and heartache, as the pair lean on each other while navigating medical appointments, altered routines, and the quiet fear that accompanies a life‑changing illness. Kit, Milly’s husband, offers his own brand of support, while the couple’s children add another layer of emotional texture to the unfolding story.

At the same time, Jess is confronting the equally wrenching challenges of trying to become a mother. Her relationship with Jago, a partner who is both steadfast and ambitious, introduces a hopeful yet anxious undercurrent as they consider fertility treatments and the future they hope to build. The narrative threads their parallel struggles together, allowing moments of levity to surface amid the gravity, and highlighting how love, friendship, and resilience can become a lifeline in the face of the unknown.

The film’s atmosphere is intimate and bittersweet, moving gracefully between quiet, introspective scenes and warm, witty exchanges. It invites viewers into a world where the ordinary becomes profound, and where the strength of a shared past offers both comfort and courage as the characters step toward an uncertain tomorrow.
