A story about a disparate group of young teens who meet in a chat room for cutters.  Each comes from a “different group” (cheerleader, goth girl, science geek,…).  While forming great bonds in the anonymous world of the Internet, they pass each other daily…ignoring one another, sometimes opposing each another…all without the knowledge that they do in fact “know” each other and are, in fact, comrades.

Like “Magnolia” for teens it is “an intriguing and entertaining study in characters going through varying levels of crisis and introspection” smashed together with the discovery of life in films such as The Breakfast Club.

Cassie, 19, and Skylar, 14, live together in a derelict trailer on the outskirts of town.  Their drunken father has run off and Cassie, who dreams of leaving and starting her own life, is forced to care for her younger sister…all the while hoping that Children’s Services won’t find out.

Frankie, 15, is the school “goth” chick who everyone loves to hate.  She lives with her college professor parents who are more involved in their pursuit of tenure and their next published article. 

Parker, 15, is the popular jock who plays ball to please his overbearing father with whom he lives.  His mother lives not far but is far too consumed by her new life with “the Doctor” and her new children to notice the abuse at the home she fled.

Lindsey, 16, is the cheerleader who lives in the perfect home…with the perfect parents…with the perfect siblings.  She is miserable.

All teenagers meet in the online forum “For Cutters Only”…Three are cutters…one is a poser…Everyone wants to belong somewhere…even if they just pretend to fit in.
