All About Edisson and Jeremiah

​In the year 2020, at the height of the pandemic, an enigmatic woman gives birth to a boy named Edisson. Fourteen years later, the boy performs a magic show unlike any ever staged – a magic show destined to be the most watched, most debated, most controversial in history. Sitting in the audience is a ruin of a man named Jeremy Vanderbilt Delaney, a onetime celebrity journalist with patrician blood and a privileged heritage. As the remarkable magic show develops, events transpire to reveal how religious fanaticism and the deep fracture in American culture shattered Jeremy Delaney’s life and branded him with the name Jeremiah. Ultimately, Edisson’s show demonstrates a liberating path for Jeremiah, and offers a healing lesson for a divided America. ​
