A young developmentally disabled man goes forth into the world.

Actress Ellen Gerstein ("JAMES DEAN") makes an impressive debut as a writer and director with her short film about a young developmentally disabled man taking his first tentative steps toward independence.

Ronald (Jody Clark) is leaving the center where he has lived all his life to meet Edgar, who has already established himself with a job and his own apartment. After a series of touching good-byes, Ronald heads for the bus stop.

As Edgar waits at the other end of the line, circumstances conspire to make them miss their connection.

The film is filled with sweet and touching images that allow us to experience the world of the developmentally disabled from their own unique point of view.
