On April 20, 1999, an ordinary day at a high school in Portland, Oregon, is shown through the perspective of several students. Among them are John, who has a strained relationship with his alcoholic father; Elias, a photography student who is building a portfolio of other students; Michelle, an outcast who struggles with her body issues; Nicole, Brittany, and Jordan, three bulimic teens who gripe about their parents; popular athlete and lifeguard Nathan and his girlfriend, Carrie; and Acadia, a close friend of John and a member of the school's gay–straight alliance (GSA). Unbeknownst to anyone, two other students, Alex and Eric, are preparing to carry out a mass shooting and bomb attack at their school.
