What does it take to be a man and a proper father? Josh's life spins out of control after his mother dies when he is thirteen. Isolated by grief from his father and lacking guidance, he ricochets from one bad choice to another. He descends into a Neverland of drugs, petty crime and sex work. He is one of the lost boys. When he surfaces from this life, he is twenty years old, the single father of an infant son and facing an assault charge which will see him incarcerated. His father's attempt to rescue this situation sees him engaged to work with a famous visual artist who is losing his sight. Generational conflict leads them both to the brink of self-destruction. The lack of empathy between them and their narcissism fuels their aggression and bad choices. Can either man survive the onslaught of the other?
