"Prodigal Son"

From the author of "Doubt," this story follows a 17-year-old boy from the Bronx who suddenly finds himself in a private school in New Hampshire. He's violent, gifted, alienated and on fire with a ferocious loneliness. Two faculty members wrestle with the dilemma: Is the kid a star or a disaster? A passionate, explosive portrait of a young man on the verge of salvation or destruction, "Prodigal Son" was written by John Patrick Shanley and directed by Dave Howard Summer.
