In "Reach" a socially awkward genius, Steven Turano (Garrett Clayton), divulges to a pro-suicide support group that he plans to kill himself. 

Although his first attempt is unsuccessful, he is determined to find a way to escape his suffering. 

He is constantly picked-on by former childhood friend and school bully, Nick Perkins (Jordan Doww), and his widowed father, for whom he harbors a deep resentment for over his mother's death. 

However, when Clarence (Johnny James Fiore), the new quirky kid in school, befriends him, Steven's plans are side-tracked, and he begins to "REACH" out beyond his comfort zone to form stronger relationships with his father, friends (Joey Bragg, Steven Capp, Rio Mangini) and teachers.

Bojesse Christopher, Kevin Sizemore, Concetta Tomei, Corbin Bernsen, Raffaela Capp, Steven Thomas Capp, Rio Mangini, Natasha Capp, Brent Tarnol, Michelle Danner and Chelsea Cook round out the cast.

"Reach" is a window into the private lives of both bullies and their targets, and shows how the power of one small gesture can change the course of one's life. 

"Reach" was awarded Best Feature Screenplay in The Hollywood & Vine Film Festival in 2015.
