Synopsis

Only Todd Solondz could dream up the dark and hilarious twist on the classic Oedipal theme that is LOVE CHILD.  Eleven-year-old Junior is a delusional aspiring Broadway star with an inappropriate obsession with his mother Immaculada.  After orchestrating an accident that nearly kills his abusive father, Junior encourages Nacho, the handsome man living in the family’s guesthouse, to court his mother and become his new dad.  But when Nacho and Immaculada fall deeply in love, Junior finds himself insanely jealous that he’s no longer the center of his mother’s attention and hatches a diabolical scheme to frame Nacho for his father’s murder.
