A psychology professor’s search for his missing wife launches us on a time-hopping fugue, weaving together the stories of Stalin’s daughter defecting to America, the son of a white supremacist growing to doubt the beliefs he was raised with, and the secret despair of becoming an accidental killer.
Inspired by the book Thinking, Fast and Slow by Nobel laureate Daniel Kahneman about the science of decision-making, Jonathan Spector (Tony Award-nominated Eureka Day) takes us on an explosively theatrical interrogation of how we make decisions, how we change our minds, and how much responsibility we bear for the things we do not control.
