Two-time Oscar?-winner (Best Actress, The Silence of the Lambs, 1991; The Accused, 1988) Jodie Foster delivers an "outstanding" ('Boxoffice') performance in this "razor-sharp story of suspense" (Albuquerque Journal) about a troubled teen with a deadly secret. Co-starring Martin Sheen, Alexis Smith, Mort Shuman and Scott Jacoby, this "delicious" (Philadelphia Daily News) thriller is "slyly ambiguous and hypnotically watchable" (Los Angeles Times)!

When Rynn's nosy landlady and a lecherous neighbor (Sheen) begin to suspect that this little girl is hiding a dark and dangerous secret, Rynn is determined to preserve her isolated existence at any cost ? and stop those vicious rumors dead in their tracks!
