Storyline

A constant runaway is given over to the care of the state and finds herself in a remand centre for girls. She is soon caught between the uncaring bureaucracy, the sometimes brutal treatment from her peers and her own abusive family, and only one care worker sees her potential to rise above her tragic circumstances.

Trivia

'Linda Blair' was 14 when this TV-movie was made and 15 when it was released. However, the other girls at the reform school in the film were much older than the ages they portrayed. Two others who are credited were in their mid-20's when this was filmed, as Nora Heflin and Tina Andrews were 24 and 23 respectively, when this was made, while Janit Baldwin was 18 or 19. All of these girls were older than Mitch Vogel, who was supposedly portraying her 20 year old brother (he was actually 18 at the time). See more »

Goofs

Revealing mistakes: Near the beginning of the movie, when turning into the "home" for girls, the sign on the building says Lath and Plastering. It should read Lathe and Plastering or Bath and Plastering, not what is written on the side of the building. See more »

Counselor Barbara Clark: Chris... you lied. I know. You started that riot on purpose.
Chris Parker: [cold tone] Big deal.
Counselor Barbara Clark: Chris... I don't know what I'm going to do with you anymore. At this rate, you'll never get out of here. Keep on this path and you'll never get your freedom.
Chris Parker: [shrugs] What's the difference?
[Chris walks away and up to her group]
Chris Parker: Hey Moco, gimmie a cigarette!
