The Basics of Philosophy
At Ridgemont College, repressed philosophy professor Dr. John Jorrisen teaches an introductory course while researching a book on Baruch Spinoza; when a long-buried transgression and the unexpected return of its victim surface, he confronts cascading guilt, desire, and a profound spiritual reckoning that reshapes his life and personal moral resolve.
