Alexandria, Jake, Caitlin, and Veronica -- ages 5 to 15 -- want to change the conversation. They reveal in their own words what it’s like to deal with the literal ups and downs of a challenged life. In this intimate verité documentary, four charismatic kids strive for acceptance in a world that is often, at best, indifferent to them.
