Billy spends his evenings jacking cars. He learns the trade from his best friend Mikey, who's a decidedly poor influence in his life. Billy is an intelligent and troubled youth on the edge. He's boiling over with emotion. He lashes out at school and at his mother and stepfather. He's attempting to come to grips with his lower class station in life, being abandoned by his father and facing a seemingly hopeless future. Only Billy's connection to his girlfriend Jennifer and her tight-knit family brings out his sweeter, more human side. The relationship keeps him grounded and shows him that there may be a better way forward. Can Billy embrace love or will his tumultuous relationship with Mikey derail his future plans and send him down the bleak path that he seems destined to travel? (Fantastic Fest)
