Tracy Flick Can't Win
Tracy Flick is a dedicated assistant principal at a suburban New Jersey high school, feeling stuck and underappreciated in midlife. Her spirits lift when the principal announces his retirement, offering her a chance at the top job.
Determined to secure her long-overdue promotion, Tracy redoubles her efforts at work, balancing her professional ambitions with her personal life—a ten-year-old daughter, a needy boyfriend, and a new meditation practice.
However, complications arise when her male colleagues push to honor Vito Falcone, a former NFL player with a dubious past, sparking Tracy’s reflections on her own life choices. As she navigates these challenges, Tracy begins to question if she truly is a shoo-in for the principal role and what ulterior motives might be at play around her.
