To change things and add some life to her bland existence, she signs up for night classes in poetry. Her teacher (Gael García Bernal) is inspiring and attractive, but Lisa quickly spots the extent of her talents. She is newly tuned to the vast ocean of language, so when one of her own young students begins piecing together words that carry the light of brilliant poetry, she thinks she has a prodigy on her hands. Enamored by the little one’s talent, she sets out to cultivate the creative gift she sees in him.
With other members of the little boy’s family too distracted to recognize his genius, Lisa thinks it is now up to her to bring this verbal Mozart to the world.
