Blackbird

Blackbird 2012

When bullying, horror culture and virtual identities meet, the result is disaster; we may find ourselves in prisons that we have built ourselves. Troubled and stubborn, young Kafka-ready Sean is a misfit gothic student from a small town in Canada. While trying to protect himself from the constant pressure of his schoolmates, he threatens someone with death over the internet. He is eventually arrested, placed in a reformatory, and falsely accused by the media and authorities of planning a Columbine-like gun massacre. Outcast by the paranoia-ridden townspeople, Sean's only hope is to fix his tainted image and prove his innocence to his popular girlfriend, Deanna.
