The story was a Docu-drama based on Harold Mondschein's work with troubled kids (Learning, Behavior and Emotional issues.) The young man portrayed in the film was a composite of several children he had previously worked with. It was Peter Boyle's first adventure into trying a different kind of "softer" character, one of Donald Wrye's first forays into directing and one of ABC's first made for television movies, which started a "trend." Douglas Day Stewart began his writing career close to this time and this was one of Tomorrow Entertainments' first production efforts.
