I really enjoyed this story and the writing style was fantastic. Before I knew it I was on page 40, just going with the flow.
If this were my story, I would try to shave off a few more pages, but all in all there is not much fat to trim. Perhaps the scene in the bathroom could be shortened a little.
In conclusion, I would recommend this script to anyone. It is a great example of storytelling done right.
When four teens from wildly different worlds are sentenced to a juvenile program, their stories of survival, privilege, pain, and rebellion begin to collide. Together, they discover that healing is louder than silence—and sometimes, the system is the villain hiding in plain sight.
