Sexy but unstable wife and mother Jude walked out on her family three years ago. Now, just as suddenly, she is back. But her husband, Robert, has fallen in love with Callie, an assistant principal at his sons' school. He asks Jude for a divorce. She responds by trying to turn her three boys against Callie, then by slashing herself and blaming her rival and finally by drawing her 12-year-old, Kes, into a murderous plot.

How It Feels

A psychological thriller that escalates from domestic tension into genuine menace as a destabilizing ex-wife's return fractures a carefully rebuilt family. The film gradually reveals how far one person's need for control can corrupt those around her, especially the vulnerable.
