haunts the children; a nineteen year old drug addict, and his younger brother,
a bullied closet homosexual.There’s the story of the dog; a teen who offers
sexual favors to gain acceptance, the challenged classmate who would do
anything for her love, and the redhead beauty, haunted by a secret, tragic
past. These lives and others will change forever on this final evening before

time.
