Set against the backdrop of 1969, Jamie Schwartz, a sensitive 16-year-old at an all-boys boarding school, grapples with his isolated existence. Struggling to connect with peers and faculty, Jamie finds solace in his obsession with J.D. Salinger’s The Catcher in the Rye, envisioning himself as its iconic protagonist, Holden Caulfield.
