SYNOPSIS __________
Plot:
Eliza Naumann (Flora Cross) has no reason to believe she is
anything but ordinary. Her father Saul (Richard Gere), a beloved
university professor, dotes on her talented elder brother
Aaron (Max Minghella). Her scientist mother, Miriam (Juliette
Binoche), seems consumed by her career. When a spelling bee
threatens to reaffirm her mediocrity, Eliza amazes everyone:
she wins. Her newfound gift garners an invitation not only
to the national competition, but an entrée into the
world of words and Jewish mysticism that have so long captivated
her father’s imagination. But Eliza’s unexpected
success hurls the Naumann family dynamic into a tailspin,
long-held secrets emerge and she is forced to depend upon
her own divination to hold the family together.
