Cameron Kincaid (Michael Angarano), a rebellious 17-year-old from a broken home, is in trouble at school, with the law, and at odds with his mother and stepfather. He enters a prestigious student film competition and enlists the assistance of a reluctant retired gaffer named Flash (Christopher Plummer). Flash is the only surviving crew member from the legendary Citizen Kane and lives in the motion picture retirement home. During the course of filming, Cameron’s dream of being the “man in the chair” comes true, but more importantly, his life is transformed through his mentor Flash.
