Richard Bowmaster -- a 60-year-old human rights scholar -- hits the car of Evelyn Ortega -- a young, undocumented immigrant from Guatemala -- in the middle of a snowstorm in Brooklyn. What at first seems just a small inconvenience takes an unforeseen and far more serious turn when Evelyn turns up at the professor’s house seeking help.
