29-year-old Eban has retreated home to his parent's house in Seaside Oregon after the dissolution of his teaching job in Seattle. There he courts 15-year-old Charlie and eventually the two start a sexual relationship. As the age of consent in Oregon is 18 years and given the age difference, the adults in this drama take a dim view of this development.

Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
Preachy and humorless, Eban and Charley shocks only by the quality of its numbing solipsism.
– Ed Park,
Village Voice,
11 Jan 2002
rotten:
There's not enough judgment being rendered by the filmmaker, who seems happy enough to portray his movie's relationship sympathetically because, after all, these things happen.
– John Anderson,

rotten:
Might best be described as preaching to a sparse congregation, or else Mr. Bolton is simply out to bore people into submission.
– Elvis Mitchell,

fresh:
Bolton could easily have exploited the film's unsettling issues, but he takes a nonsensationalized approach that leaves viewers to decide the moral questions for themselves.
– V.A. Musetto,
New York Post,
11 Jan 2002
fresh:
Few people will be able to go along with Bolton's point of view regarding relationships between adults and underage youths, but there's no denying the writer-director, in his feature debut, has avoided sensationalism in telling this story.
