View Rights PortalNoah Oakman erkennt sein eigenes Leben nicht mehr wieder. Nach einem Streit mit seinem besten Freund Alan vertraut er sich dem Nachbarsjungen Circuit an … und plötzlich nehmen all die Dinge, die er für sicher hielt, eine eigenartige Wendung: Seine engsten Freunde Alan und Val wollen auf einmal an einem weit entfernten College studieren. Und woher stammt die Narbe im Gesicht seiner Mutter, wieso spricht niemand darüber? Was ihm bleibt, sind fünf Konstanten. An ihnen hangelt sich Noah durch das Wirrwarr seiner ganz schön kaputten Tage - um herauszufinden, was seine Welt aus den Fugen gesprengt hat.
