Stephanie Daley

16-year-old Stephanie Daley (Amber Tamblyn) is hospitalized unexpectedly during a school fieldtrip while, in a nearby public restroom, a dead newborn is discovered. Faced with charges of murder, Stephanie claims she never knew she was pregnant and that the child was stillborn. Forensic psychologist Lydie Crane (Tilda Swinton) is hired to determine the truth behind Stephanie's continuing state of denial.
Coincidentally, Lydie is herself pregnant and struggles with an impending fear that her marriage and her pregnancy is in jeopardy. Her intuition intensifies with each session with Stephanie and she soon believes that unraveling the teenager's mystery is somehow crucial to her own fate.
Featuring gripping performances by Tilda Swinton and Academy Award-winner Timothy Hutton, Stephanie Daley is anchored by a brave powerhouse performance by Amber Tamblyn. Writer/director Hilary's Brougher's evocative film, winner of Best Screenplay at Sundance Film Festival, weaves two parallel journeys into a sublime masterpiece about the absolute nature of truth.
