When Rachel Lehrer (Darby Stanchfield of ABC’s hit TV show “Scandal”), a young girl challenged with undiagnosed Asperger’s Syndrome, leaves her overprotective parents for the freedom of college at prestigious Somerton Tech University, her hopes for a future in the field of mathematics are high. Instead, her college life is turned upside down by a two-faced roommate and her manipulative mother. Rachel finds herself in a bureaucratic maze of complex student regulations and federal laws, where procedure trumps truth and justice. With her graduation on the line, Rachel enlists the help of her father (Brett Rice of Remember the Titans and Forrest Gump) to fight the irrational system, even though it means risking everything she’s worked so hard to accomplish.
