His wife, love of his life, died recently only 61 days after she was diagnosed. No longer able to stay in their home he and his high school son move to the L.A. area, dad will take a teaching job as a mathematics instructor, the private school is run by an old friend. The boy is required to participate in a sport so the lesser of the evils in cross country running.
The boy happens to be very good in French class and thus is assigned as a study partner of a pretty rich girl who has a secret, she cuts herself as a way to deal with the fights her parents get into, and heading for divorce.
These and other dramas play out in a way that seems pretty real, I was struck by how well the dialog is written, characters seldom say or do dumb things. My wife and I enjoyed this movie at home, we found it streaming on Amazon.
