It all begins at the carnival...

A chain reaction of hope begins to build, giving one boy the courage to confess his feelings and another to make a wish on a wishing machine. By the time the carnival is over, fate will take a hand in the future of a group of young men who fight fear, bullies, their own insecurities, and events that could change the course of their lives forever.

Banding together, they create The Bright Side Brigade, an LGBT support group to fight the hidden crimes of a zero tolerance school. Their weapons?
