Comment
Two teenagers (Helen Hunt and Doug McKeon) get involved with the rampant drugs scene at their high school and one of the teachers (Diana Scarwid) tries to change the culture. This is a made for TV American do not do drugs film. The production and dialogue is poor, but is notable for an early performance from a young Helen Hunt as she attempts suicide out of a window.
