A Hal Hartley-directed feature about a Queens-bred single mother (Posey) whose attempts to steer her son (Aiken) in the right direction are thwarted by her accidental involvement with the CIA. - Baker & Taylor
After her husband Henry fled the country seven years ago with the help of her brother Simon, Fay is approached by the CIA to help them find Henry's missing notebooks in exchange for Simon's freedom. - Magnolia Home Entertainment
Fay Grim (Parker Posey), a single mom from Woodside, Queens, is afraid her 14 year old son, Ned, will grow up to be like his father, Henry, who has been missing for seven years. Fay's brother Simon is serving ten years in prison for aiding in Henry's escape from the law. He has come to suspect that Henry was not the man he appeared to be. His suspicions are validated when the CIA asks Fay to travel to Paris to retrieve Henry's property. Her mission turns into a sprawling con-game, pitching Fay deep into a world of international espionage in this follow-up to Henry Fool.
