Beneath the idyllic surface of Los Angeles' endless suburbs lurks a family drama with parents who hire specialized companies to pick up unruly teens in the middle of the night in their own homes and against their will deliver them to special "boot camps" in the Mormon state of Utah to teach them discipline. It is well-meaning but also appallingly brutal and not unlike something from American action movies.
