Synopsis: In a small town in Iowa, Scotty Ocean has announced that seven is going to be his year. It does turn out to be his year, but not quite the one he had imagined. It is the year his mother abandons the family. At first, Scotty does astonishing things to get her to return. When he realizes she won’t be coming back, he decides he must replace her. And when that proves impossible, he takes the dramatic step of trying to remain seven forever.
