Comments
With the exception of the Official and Matron, the teen characters described below are meant to be kind of a rag-tag bunch of misfits, the group that our lead hangs out with in the orphanage, which is a pallid institution of decay. We welcome unique, different faces: "street" type kids; looking for diverse ethnicity as well.
Storyline
A group of teenagers in a State Home navigate their way through a system of phychological exploitation.
