Catherine Eaton stars as Liv, a young woman who has never spoken, raised on a remote island by her grandfather Lionel (Harris Yulin, "Ozark"). When Lionel discovers he's dying, he calls the driven, privileged son (Teddy Sears, "The Flash") of his best friend to the island and asks him to protect Liv's independence, alongside Lionel's attorney (Frankie Faison, "The Wire"). That night, as Lionel is reading to Liv, his voice fails him. Liv picks up the book of Shakespeare and begins - first reading, then weaving a new language from Shakespeare's words. She is committed to a psychiatric hospital and becomes a full-blown rebel in the hospital; her increasing violence threatens to keep her locked up for life as she fights for her voice and her freedom.

“Eaton is an undeniable talent to watch.
An examination, and ultimately embrace, of otherness.”
- Brian Tallerico, ROGER EBERT. COM
“Eaton and co-writer Bryan Delaney have crafted their script with skillful precision. A powerful metaphor for our world’s prevalence to marginalize.”
- Jared Mobarek, THE FILM STAGE
