Festival Note
A filmmaker closely follows her teen brother as he starts a new life in college. Although her brother is smart, he is a bit of an oddball and finds it hard to navigate the world like a normal teenager. However, as she moni- tors his progress, the filmmaker notices similar traits on her own daughter. This makes her question her ability to help the people she loves the most.
