Manic (2001)
Lyle, a troubled teen with a history of violence, finds himself in a juvenile mental facility instead of facing prison. There, he meets a diverse group of equally damaged adolescents, each grappling with their own demons—abuse, identity crises, and aggression. As they band together, this unlikely support system becomes crucial for Lyle, who struggles to navigate a chaotic world that feels incomprehensible. Through their shared experiences, they each seek a glimmer of hope and understanding in a challenging environment that tests their resilience.
