Officers from the RSPCA arrive at a farm to investigate reports of animal cruelty and neglect. To their surprise, they find a 5-year-old boy named Jacob curled up asleep in a dog bed, surrounded by filth and squalor. Jacob has severe physical and cognitive impairments, and it becomes apparent that no one outside his family knows of his existence. As Jacob arrives at the Allen household, his foster mother, Louise, is filled with terror and uncertainty about how she will cope with a child with such extensive physical and emotional damage. With the support of veteran social worker, Mary, Louise begins the challenging task of seeking the support Jacob needs. Medical investigations reveal more shocking details about Jacob's story, shedding light on the abuse and neglect he has endured. The family must navigate a complex legal system and fight for Jacob's rights and well-being. Through their determination and love, Louise and Mary help Jacob begin to heal and thrive, providing him with the care and support he deserves. The journey is not without its challenges, but the Allen family's unwavering commitment to Jacob's recovery inspires hope and compassion in those around them.
