Marcelo's father thinks that he needs a taste of the real world. Marcelo does not agree. He has Asperger's Syndrome and feels very safe at his school for children with similiar educational needs. In order to finish out his senior year at that school, Marcelo must work at his father's law firm for the summer. There Marcelo meets new people that introduce him to all things that are "real": corruption, love, and questionable loyalty. I loved how honest Marcelo's voice was as he told his story!
