Crutch, “based on a true story”, tells the story of David (Eben Gordon) whose home life is falling apart with a philandering father and an alcoholic mother. David falls under the spell of his acting teacher Kenny (Rob Moretti – actor, writer, and director of the film). The controlling Kenny at first provides an escape from David’s family, but his situation doesn’t improve as he spirals down into drug abuse and confusion over his relationship with Kenny.
