The Eamons family's lives center on their evangelism, on patriarch Marshall (an associate Baptist pastor), and on only offspring 18-year-old Jared, a freshman at a Christian college. Initiated by an unfounded accusation, Marshall and his wife Nancy send Jared to a conversion-therapy assessment camp under the direction of Victor Sykes, the aim of the camp to decide on the next step of the appropriate conversion therapy. While Nancy stays at a nearby hotel, Jared willingly goes in knowing his own internal feelings regardless of what his parents have been told about him in that half-truth accusation. Jared's recent past leading up to this moment is told in flashback, an outwardly straight-laced existence of that centered on the church and the long-term "natural path" of marriage--possibly to his high-school girlfriend--and children. While Jared does his best to adhere to what is asked of him to tell his truth, that truth may set him on a path to what he needs to do for himself. Will he be allowed to pursue that path, especially if it goes against his parents or Victor?
