Lisa Spinelli is a Staten Island teacher who is unusually devoted to her students. When she discovers one of her five-year-olds is a prodigy, she becomes fascinated with the boy, ultimately risking her family and freedom to nurture his talent.
An unsettlingly intense portrait of obsession drives this quiet study of a woman who mistakes control for care. Once she identifies a brilliant five-year-old in her classroom, her devotion curdles into a dangerous fixation that threatens to upend her entire life.
