Takes the viewers into the world of students with special needs, as they prepare for their school's debutante ball. Most high school students take their prom for granted, but these young people have the challenge of overcoming disability in order to make a glamorous presentation that night. First loves, fistfights, and falls on the dance floor are intercut with interviews with parents, the school principal, and intimate moments in their day-to-day lives at home.
