Tony Webster (Jim Broadbent) telah menduda, tetapi masih bisa menjaga hubungan baik dengan mantan istrinya, Margaret (Harriet Walter). Berdua, mereka sama-sama menemani putri semata wayang mereka yang menjelang melahirkan tanpa suami. Rupanya ada jelaga yang membekas dalam diri Tony, entah apa. Ketika sebuah wasiat datang dari seorang kenalannya di masa lalu, Tony kembali teringat pada kisah cintanya yang hampir bersambut antara dirinya dengan putri si pemberi wasiat itu, Veronica (Charlotte Rampling). Di usia masing-masing yang telah senja, Tony dan Veronica dipaksa menghadapi masa lalu. Dan semoga, masih sempat berdamai dengannya.

Sutradara Ritesh Batra dikenal dengan filmnya The Lunchbox yang juga bercerita tentang kisah cinta yang lembut antar sesama paruh baya yang mungkin pernah salah mengambil keputusan. Film ini diadaptasi dari novel berjudul sama karya Julian Barnes.

Tony Webster (Jim Broadbent) is a widower, but he can still manage a good terms with his ex-wife, Margaret (Harriet Walter), even to the point of good friends. Together, they accompany their daughter who is now expecting a baby with —for some reason— no father. But Tony is visibly marred by something deep inside him, and probably was the cause of his own separation back then. One day, a letter came causing him to remember his own past, including a relationship that ended prematurely with a girl named Veronica (Charlotte Rampling). In their advanced age, Tony and Veronica are forced to face their past, and if possible, make peace with it.

The director, Ritesh Batra, was known with his well-received debut, "The Lunchbox", which also told a story of a couple of aged people which may had made a wrong decision back then. The Sense of an Ending was adapted from a Booker Man Prize-winning novel with the same title, by Julian Barnes.
