Mary Jane – Blauová Jessica Anya (2022)

In Baltimore, the 1970s are being written. Fourteen-year-old Mary Jane enjoys cooking with her mother, singing in the church choir, and relishing the selection of the best Broadway musicals that her family subscribes to. As a shy, introverted bookworm, she is thrilled when she lands a summer job as a babysitter for a local doctor's family. A respectable job, as her mother says, in a respectable house. From the outside, the house does indeed look respectable, but inside, chaos reigns both literally and figuratively: clutter everywhere, doors plastered with stickers calling for the impeachment of President Richard Nixon, and for dinner, cereal and takeout from a restaurant. And what’s worse (if Mary Jane's mother knew this, which she doesn’t), the doctor is a psychiatrist and has reserved the entire summer for important work: helping a famous rock star with rehab. A week after Mary Jane starts her job as a babysitter, the rocker moves in with his wife, a renowned actress. As the summer goes on, Mary Jane introduces her new household to pressed clothes and regular dinners, and in return, she gets a ticket into the liberal world of sex, drugs, and rock 'n' roll (not to mention group therapy). Caught between the lifestyle she knew and the future she is just now...
