The Prodigy

“What's wrong with Miles?”

Sarah Blume (Taylor Schilling) wants to believe her young son is simply gifted, and in a way he is. Miles (Jackson Robert Scott) starts behaving in ways that frighten her, and Sarah begins to suspect an evil, supernatural presence has taken hold of him, with her husband John (Peter Mooney) slow to follow. Nicholas McCarthy builds a story about a parent's need to protect a child, even when that child has become the thing she needs protecting from.
