Life in a small mining town can be like living in a
fishbowl, where everyone knows everybody else's business.
Fifteen-year-old Jodi's mother wants her father to quit his
binge drinking and his dangerous job at the mine—even more
so after a collapse leaves two miners dead and three trapped
deep underground. As tensions escalate both at home and around the town, Jodi
seeks comfort with her friends but soon faces a double
betrayal. Meanwhile, her ten-year-old brother Jake reacts by
joining a gang of schoolyard bullies who engage in
increasingly dangerous antics. As Jodi struggles to gain autonomy over her life, she begins
to discover the person she really is. But with everything
around her spiraling out of control, it may not be the right
time to let her family, friends, and ultimately the whole
town know—no matter how much she wants to.
