When nerdy second grader Eleanor tries to join a schoolyard game, a bully named Rachel “jinxes” her. Unable to speak until someone says her name, Eleanor sets off on a madcap quest to break Rachel’s diabolical spell before the 3:00 bell rings. As she navigates the cutthroat world of second grade, Eleanor seeks help from a stern math teacher, a deranged abstract artist, and a clueless father – with disastrous results!
In Jinx! writer/director Adam Baran has created a twisted epic comedy about finding our voice.
