When super-sized foster kid Goon causes a devastating accident, he's sentenced to an experimental detention center in rural Florida. There, despite his efforts to go unnoticed, his size and sensitivity make Goon a perfect mark for the resident bully.
Assigned to work at the stables, he connects with the rescued horses and his co-worker Trudy, who is entangled in the center's mysterious past. After Goon suffers a brutal attack, he must confront his tormentor, a raging hurricane, and his own crushing guilt.
Goon dreams of being reunited with his younger brother and tries to prove to anyone who will listen that he deserves a second chance.
But first, he must prove it to himself.
