Story
Nate Busko has spent 12 of his 17 years running from his past
Fed up with being bounced from foster home to foster home, he now lives in a car, eats corn on the cob, and uses sports practice as an opportunity to take a shower.
Alone, he's haunted by fragments of traumatic memories from his past
When night falls, he couldn't be more different from the confident, vain persona at school.
Stan Deen, a popular drama teacher at his high school, shows up and deals with her own problems
She sees Nate's hidden talent and his need for nurturing and guidance where no other teacher sees it, and decides to help him.
But in a surprising turn of events, Nate is arrested in the middle of the school and taken away in handcuffs
Stan follows Nate to the police station and not only arranges bail, but agrees to take Nate home, despite the raised eyebrows he receives from his fellow teachers.
Stan is willing to do whatever he can to help his struggling student
But the question is: can we really help someone if we are not willing to help ourselves?
