At the Covenant House, located on the outskirts of the French Quarter in New Orleans, Louisiana, the doors never close, and there is always room for one more. On any given day, a constant stream of young people carrying everything they own in plastic garbage bags fills the courtyard. The prospective residents are just teenagers, but have already been labeled drug addicts, schizophrenics, criminals and outcasts. As one staff member puts it, “the most damaged population of youth that exists in society today”. Filming over the course of a full year, brothers Brent and Craig Renaud tell the raw and emotional stories of the incredible kids who seek shelter at the Covenant House, and the staff struggling to work miracles everyday on their behalf.

Os diretores Brent e Craig Renaud passaram dois anos imersos na cultura de drogas de uma comunidade do Arkansas. O resultado é um documentário que mostra os impactos dramáticos do negócio de metanfetamina a partir dos pontos de vista dos agentes da lei, traficantes e consumidores, revelando uma visão ampla da tragédia social em uma área rural dos EUA devastada pelo tráfico de drogas e falta de oportunidades.
