A young math prodigy, Becky, is offered the opportunity to work on a groundbreaking government project in exchange for the release of her mother from prison. As time goes on, this endeavor begins to consume her young life. She’s miserable and misses out on teenage life, then starts to question whether her exploitation is worth her mother’s freedom. No, chances are you'll never live a life like this. But chances are also that you've thought about how much you would do for someone else.
What our screening reviewers said: "The circumstances are unique, but the message about mothers and the abuse they can dish out is most certainly not unique."
"I really loved this young woman's approach - and could relate to her feelings."
