Cultural conflicts threaten to derail the relationship between a determined youth counselor and her headstrong young charge in this
drama from
Girls Town director
Jim McKay. Despite being labeled a delinquent by the child welfare system, African-American inner-city youth
Angel (
Jonan Everett) is in reality just a troubled teen attempting to survive in his harsh surroundings. When
Angel is kicked out of his home on the heels of a heated argument with his father,
Angel's pregnant, thirtysomething counselor,
Nicole (
Rachel Griffiths), warmly accepts the troubled boy into her home until the birth of her baby. As
Angel begins to drift back into the self-defeating patterns that led to the rift with his father and
Nicole ponders the effect that childbirth will have on her identity, the pair's already fragile relationship threatens to crumble amidst these weighty issues.
