None of us want to believe we peaked as a child. Even if it's starting to look like that, though, there's always time to turn things around.
In "Definition Please," a Greensburg, Pennsylvania-shot and set film premiering Friday on Netflix, Monica is a former Scripps National Spelling Bee champion whose life didn't quite turn out the way one might expect of someone who showed so much promise at such a young age. Greensburg native Sujata Day stars as Monica in addition to serving as the film's writer and director.
"Definition Please" was shot in summer 2019 and had become a festival-circuit darling before recently being picked up by Ava DuVernay's Array label for distribution. A filmmaker can't ask for much better support than someone with DuVernay's industry clout putting her name behind it and getting it onto a platform as big as Netflix.
