overview
What is Manic about?
You can't escape yourself. Follows the fate of Lyle, a violent adolescent who, in lieu of prison, is placed in a juvenile mental institution, where he encounters a group of equally troubled teens. This motley crew—abused, sexually confused, violent, and yet hanging on by their grit and anger—becomes Lyle's last lifeline as he fights to find meaning in a world that seems to defy understanding. It blends drama elements. The film reflects a distinct United States of America style and perspective. The story is brought to life by director Jordan Melamed. With a runtime of 1h 42m, it offers a comfortable feature-length experience.
