Young Martin Sheen shines in the role of advocate for a group of mentally challenged teenagers. Sheen selects a group home only to find resistance from homeowners who fear their presence will adversely affect the neighbourhood. The performance of the young actors are beautifully portrayed and one of the best moments is when Sheen invites the young men to help find the solution while gently offering his guidance. Be hard to find a modern show that treats the subject with the same humanity and tenderness. Some reviewers might remark on the low budget of the production but in this case, the message benefits without lavishness. Highly recommended.
