In lieu of prison, Lyle, a violent adolescent, is placed in a juvenile mental institution where he encounters a group of equally troubled teens. This motley crew—abused, sexually confused, violent, and yet hanging on by their grit and anger—becomes Lyle's last lifeline as he fights to find meaning in a world that seems to defy understanding.
A raw, kinetic energy radiates from a young Joseph Gordon-Levitt as he navigates the volatile hallways of a juvenile psychiatric ward. This jagged portrait of teenage rebellion finds unexpected warmth in the shared scars of its broken inhabitants.
