Good Egg

The film, written and directed by Nicole Gomez Fisher, centers on Jessica Nieves-Sanders (Martinez), a high school drama teacher in Queens who longs to be a mother before she hits 40 and is forced to explore alternative methods to become one, after several failed attempts at IVF. Just as Jessica’s about to throw in the towel, she and her husband Gordon (Johnstone) meet a young professional con artist who they believe will be able to give them what they most desire. After striking up a deal with her, however, the pair get caught up in a criminal underworld, and are forced to consider how they wound up in such dire straits.
