Powder
DramaFantasyMysterySci-FiThriller112 min
A pale, isolated teenager called Powder is pulled out of hiding after years shut away from the world and dropped into a town that treats him like something unnatural. At school and at home, he becomes the target of fear, ridicule, and curiosity, while the adults around him argue over whether he needs protection, discipline, or study. As people get closer to him, they discover he seems to possess abilities that defy explanation, making every encounter more charged. Sean Patrick Flanery is at the center of a story about a boy trying to understand other people even as they struggle to see him as human, and a local teacher, played by Jeff Goldblum, is drawn into that conflict.
