SECOND HAND KID
When longtime widow Connie D'Amato decides to take a foster child, she gets a whole lot more than she bargained for. Instead of the the 10-year-old "Shirley Temple" she was promised, Connie's charge is 16-year-old Lisa, a repeat offender who has a history of addiction and abuse. Connie's 27-year-old daughter, Angela, takes an instant dislike to Lisa...and for good reason. Not only does the teenager upset a monotonously secure routine, she also brings new problems. Her vicious brother, Ed, shows up to "keep an eye on Lisa." What's worse, Angela catches Lisa stealing Connie's meager savings. Only Papa, Connie's father-in-law, is able to touch Lisa across the generations. Eventually each character must make a decision—and none of their lives will ever be the same. One int. set.Duration: 0
