All-time comedy favourite Steve Martin gives a remarkable performance in one of the most delightful films of the year! Mysterious, reclusive furniture-maker Michael McCann (Martin) leads a quiet, simple life until fate delivers an orphaned two-year-old girl to his doorstep. After taking the tot into his home and into his heart, McCann and young Mathilda start a fulfilling new life as father and daughter - despite some slightly unconventional child-rearing methods. But soon another twist of fate threatens to take Mathilda away when her natural father, a powerful local politician, comes to claim her as his own! Thoroughly irresistible, A SIMPLE TWIST OF FATE is packed full of surprises and warm, funny moments you won't want to miss.
