Sedona News – The Sedona International Film Festival is proud to present the Northern Arizona premiere of “The Lesson” showing Aug. 25-31 at the Mary D. Fisher Theatre.
Liam (Daryl McCormack) — an aspiring and ambitious young writer — eagerly accepts a tutoring position at the family estate of his idol, renowned author J.M. Sinclair (Academy Award-nominee Richard E. Grant). But soon, Liam realizes that he is ensnared in a web of family secrets, resentment, and retribution.
Sinclair, his wife Hélène (Academy Award-nominee Julie Delpy), and their son Bertie (Stephen McMillan) all guard a dark past, one that threatens Liam’s future as well as their own.
As the lines between master and protégé blur, class, ambition, and betrayal become a dangerous combination in this taut noir thriller.
