A small mountain community in Canada is devastated when a school bus accident leaves more than a dozen of its children dead. A big-city lawyer arrives to help the survivors' and victims' families prepare a class-action suit, but his efforts only seem to push the townspeople further apart. At the same time, one teenage survivor of the accident has to reckon with the loss of innocence brought about by a different kind of damage.

Movie Parental Guide

nudity We see a bare breast of a mother lying in bed next to her baby. A married woman is having an affair with a widower. He is shown removing her panties as they prepare for sex. A sex scene follows. She is shown in full frontal nudity when the man is dressing to leave. It can be inferred that a father is molesting his teenage daughter. They are seen kissing as lovers and it is implied, but not shown, that sex follows. A naked baby girl is shown breastfeeding. The shot is very discreet.
profanity The F-word is used five times. The S-word is used once. There are a very few religious exclamations.
alcohol Two of the characters drink while they are on a plane.
frightening There is a bus accident that is very intense. There is a very intense monologue in which a father tells of his preparation for saving his daughters life by performing a tracheotomy.
