Clarence Briggs, a wheelchair-bound nursing home resident with Down syndrome, plays make-believe games to cope with his terrible "Top Secret"-the former physical therapist who brutally molested him. But when Clarence sees this same therapist hosting a TV documentary about his present work with preschoolers who have Down syndrome, Clarence must decide whether to rescue the children-while risking further harm to himself-by divulging his "Top Secret" in court.
