How far will Liz go to save the one life that matters more than her own?\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSixteen-year-old Liz just wants what all the other kids at her high school seem to have -- food, shelter and maybe even a parent who actually cares.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAfter escaping her abusive mother, Liz thinks she's found something like freedom: a cramped apartment, a stoner roommate and a solid group of friends. It isn't much, but it's hers. She goes to school, fights the pull of her roommate's drugs and has even caught the eye of Danny -- a guy who offers a glimpse of the normal life she craves.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eLiz is trying. Trying hard to stay in school, build some kind of a life and toss away the things that are not serving her.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThen the precarious life she's built comes apart when Winnie, her beloved cat, is injured. Liz has a choice: let Winnie suffer or face a vet bill she can't possibly pay. To make matters worse, her delivery bike -- her only source of income -- is stolen.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWith Winnie's condition getting worse, Liz is out of time and out of options.
