An inner-city teacher struggling with addiction forms an unlikely bond with a young student who catches him in a compromising position in director
Ryan Fleck's feature-length adaptation of his own award-winning short film
Gowanus, Brooklyn. Despite his dedication to the junior-high students who fill his classroom, idealistic teacher
Dan Dunne (
Ryan Gosling) leads a secret life that the majority of his students will never know. When
Dunne's drug-soaked nightlife begins to bleed over into his daytime hours and troubled student
Drey (
Shareeka Epps) makes a startling discovery, the tenuous bond that forms between the pair soon leads to a warm friendship that could either lead them down a dangerous path or provide the human companionship needed to see things from a fresh perspective and start life anew.
