What is it like to be on the outside? To experience life in a different way? And what happens when you decide that you will not accept your fate, but make your own future? This is Luke’s story. Sheltered his whole life by his grandparents, Luke (Lou Taylor Pucci) is a young man with autism whose safe and uneventful world is turned upside down when his grandmother dies. He is forced to live with his dysfunctional relatives who have no patience for him or his senile grandfather, who they quickly force into a nursing home. He is left with his grandfather’s final, semi-coherent words: “Get a job. Find a girl. Live your own life. Be a man!” For the first time in his life, Luke has a mission. He is about to embark on a quest and isn’t taking “no” for an answer. [language]
