"The best and boldest American movie so far this year."-Rolling Stone

Based on the horrifying real-life murder of a young California girl, this "powerful portrait" (Newsweek) of deadly, disaffected teens stars Keanu Reeves (The Matrix), Crispin Glover (Charlie's Angels: The Movie), lone Skye Leitch (One Night Stand), Daniel Roebuck (Final Destination) and Dennis Hopper (Ed TV) in a tale that is "chilling to witness" (The New York Times).

On the bank of a river lies the naked body of a brutally murdered young girl.At the nearby high school, Samson (Roebuck), brags to Matt (Reeves) and his friends about how he killed her.Drunk and stoned, the doubting teens trudge to the river and discover that he isn't lying.And oddly, they decide to protect Samson behind a loyal wall of secrecy. Tormented with guilt, Matt questions their silence
