Miller’s Girl(2024)

Storyline

• A talented young writer embarks on a creative odyssey when her teacher assigns a project that entangles them both in an increasingly complex web. As lines blur and their lives intertwine, professor and protégé must confront their darkest selves while straining to preserve their individual sense of purpose and the things they hold most dear. — Lionsgate Jonathan Miller, a creative writing class teacher, is flattered beyond words when his top student, Cairo Sweet, praises his only book. As a result, Jonathan assigns Cairo a controversial midterm assignment to challenge her literary aptitude. But as the disillusioned tutor rekindles his dormant passion for writing through the fledgeling author's unrestrained talent, a complex connection forms between the two intellectuals. With Cairo's rebellious ambition and blasphemous adulation putting a strain on the professor's lukewarm marriage, will Miller's girl be Jonathan's downfall? — Nick Riganas
