Bringing Knickerbocker Home is the story of an 11-year-old boy genius "Knick" Knickerbocker, who has been raised in L.A. by a lunatic mother. On her passing, he and his personal fortune are foisted upon his unmarried aunt, Abby Aumiller, who lives on the family farm in Ohio. She comes to the relationship with her own baggage, having just buried her mother after nursing her through Alzheimer's for five years and holding a longstanding grudge against her sister. Together they must forge a new relationship that stretches the limits of what it means to be family.
