Variety reports that Jessica Alba will top-line modern-day fable "An Invisible Sign of My Own".

Filmmaker Marilyn Agrelo ("Mad Hot Ballroom") begins shooting the film, based on Aimee Bender's novel, next month from a screenplay by Pam Falk and Mike Ellis (The Wedding Planner). It is her first feature directorial outing since "Ballroom" (2005).

"Invisible" revolves around a young woman who has retreated from the world and is consumed by numbers and math. Things begin to change when she becomes a second-grade math teacher.
