Weakness

High school teacher Joshua Polansky is losing touch with his dull suburban life. His mother is dying, his wife is swinging and his autistic brother can only connect through baseball. As his professional and personal lives spin out of control, he catches the eye of, not only a former student, but also a colleague’s crush. Led into a series of misadventures, he must reconsider his decisions as well as debunk the subtle and profound ways people affect one another.

My take

A tense character study about a man unraveling under the weight of his own desires and compromises. Messy, intimate, and uncomfortable in ways that feel genuinely human—for viewers drawn to drama that doesn't look away from moral ambiguity.
