A woman tries to come to terms with the fact that her son is not taking his schizophrenia medication and is becoming more violent while not letting anyone know about the experimental cancer treatment she is taking may not be working.
This is a sold drama that show cases Lucy Liu’s true acting ability. Disappearing into the role of a mother being broken by life’s turns Liu sheds her flashy big budget persona to become a small woman trying to do right by her son. It’s a heartbreaking role that could put her in the Oscar mix if the film’s campaign can gain traction. She truly is stunning in a far from showy role that needs to be shepherded in front of academy voters.
Beyond her performances this is a solid little drama that’s worth your time.
