Description
In the tradition of American Beauty, this controversial drama explores the dark underbelly of American suburbia. Sixteen year-old Shirley Lyner (Katherine Waterston - Michael Clayton), a student babysitter saving for college, develops a crush on Michael Beltran (
John Leguizamo – Moulin Rouge, Super Mario Bros), the father of a babysitting regular. One night on the way home, Michael and Shirley kiss, and he pays her a little something extra. Unbeknown to Michael's wife, played by
Cynthia Nixon (Sex And The City), they continue their torrid affair, using the nights Shirley baby-sits to cover for their time together. Soon Shirley finds herself becoming a high school ‘Heidi Fleiss’, taking a percentage every time one of her friends ‘baby-sits’ for Michael’s married friends. But it’s only a matter of time before Shirley’s perilous world begins to quickly unravel.
