Perfect Score' is about the rite of passage of two young
men, Alex and Sam, from the opposite side of the tracks.
Alex lives in his uncle's mansion, and while money and a
stable future have been lined up for him by his powerful
and withholding uncle, he wants nothing more than to be a
song writer and to live happily ever after with Sam
–– a boy he met once when he was in his teens.
Sam's life is more wretched: he was abused, ran away from
the fists of an abusive step–father and unstable
foster homes, and lived most of his prepubescent and teen
years in the streets, fending for himself and taking on as
many jobs as he could to pay for his sister's bills at the
hospital for the crippled. Struggling to make sense of the
two divergent lives they have been dealt, Alex and Sam find
their way to one another through a journey full of
boundless love and compassion, growth, and strength.
