Matt Evans has grown up in the mountains, living a simple and solitary life with his father. By the law, the teenager must now attend school until he is 18.

This is a challenge for him on many levels, but he is quick to make friends and passionate about learning, with a special interest in architecture. When the class learns of a derelict park in the vicinity and discusses ways to fix it up, Matt suggests they do it themselves rather than wait for somebody else to do it.

While his hands-on, can-do attitude has many advantages and impresses both his teachers and his classmates, Matt soon has some hard lessons to learn about responsibility, friendship and being part of a community.
