A moderately successful architect in New York City, George Altman (Jeremy Sisto) has been a single father to Tessa since his wife’s postpartum departure. He does the best that he can. What he lacks in a general knowledge of a teenage girl’s psyche, he makes up for with a genuine desire to understand and help her navigate through her adolescent years. At 15, Tessa (Jane Levy) enjoys absorbing all the life lessons from life in the big city. She’s hip and has a genuine interest in Fellini movies and good indie rock music. The city is absolutely everything to her. After discovering a box of condoms in her room however, George decides that they need to move to the suburbs to find a more wholesome and nurturing environment. What they find in their new community of Chatswin is not what either expected and has George wondering if they haven’t jumped out of the frying pan and into the fire.
