"It’s a script that started out as an exercise during a court-imposed rehab stint, an attempt to exorcise the demons that had driven him there in the first place. It tells the story of Shia-alike Otis (Lucas Hedges), who is forced to look back on a difficult childhood as a way of building out of the mess it has created. As a kid (played by Noah Jupe) he spent his time between TV and film sets and a dingy hotel room with his foul-tempered deadbeat dad (played by LaBeouf himself). While his star might have been on the rise, his difficult relationship with his father dominated and continues to dominate years later, a tricky puzzle that remains unsolved."
