The story

Set in Cleveland in the early 1970s, the film follows William Messerman, a teenager who struggles to define his own identity while living in the shadow of his older brother Clive, a socially withdrawn mathematical prodigy.

William becomes involved with Sandra, a troubled teenage girl who is secretly living in the family’s basement and is romantically involved with Clive.
