In an attempt to escape an abusive boyfriend, American nanny Greta Evans accepts a job caring for an 8-year-old boy who lives with his family in a mansion in the English countryside. But Greta is shocked to discover that she has been hired by an elderly couple to care for Brahms, a life-sized china doll that they treat like a real child.
