Synopsis:

In the autumn of 1960, a reclusive teenager discovers love, loss, and rock'n'roll.

Fifteen year old Parry Tender doesn't know where to turn. Small town life is driving him crazy and a precocious girl who looks and acts more like a boy wants to be his girlfriend. When a fluke atmospheric condition allows a fifty thousand watt Manhattan radio station to pump its infectious rock'n'roll signal into Canada's far north, winning a radio contest might be Parry's only way out.
