Waiting for the Out

Philosophy teacher Dan’s first day working in prison hits harder than expected – awakening something paternal and revealing he’s underestimated both his students and his past.

Haunted by memories of his absent father, Dan pushes his mother for answers she won’t give. When Keith presents a lead, Dan spirals into obsession, straining family ties as he unravels at a dinner party.

As Dan’s crisis deepens, his actions threaten his entire future, leaving him caught between who he was and who he fears he is destined to be.
