The film centers on Sean Randall, a troubled teenager who is wrongfully accused of orchestrating a Columbine-style attack. The story unfolds as Sean (played by Connor Jessup) forms an unexpected friendship with Deanna Roy (portrayed by Alexia Fast), a popular girl at school. This friendship alarms Deanna’s boyfriend, leading to a violent altercation. In an attempt to defend himself, Sean posts a threatening message online, which results in his immediate arrest. During a police search of Sean’s home, they discover a collection of firearms and ammunition belonging to his father, Ricky (Michael Buie), an enthusiastic hunter. They also uncover a so-called “hit list” containing the names of twenty individuals who have bullied Sean. The authorities and media quickly declare that a potential tragedy has been averted, and Sean finds himself facing the daunting reality of being incarcerated in a juvenile detention center. To clear his name, Sean must confront his tarnished reputation and prove his innocence to Deanna and the wider community.
