12 and Holding Plot
12 and Holding is a 2006 film directed by Michael Cuesta. The film is
distributed by IFC Films and was released on May 19, 2006 in limited
theaters.
The film explores dark adolescent issues through three friends' reactions
after a boy (Conor Donovan) dies in a tree house fire set by local bullies.
His twin brother (also played by Donovan) sets out for revenge, and an
overweight survivor of the fire (Jesse Camacho) loses his sense of taste and
smell, leading him to force his obese mother to lose weight. Their female
friend (Zoe Weizenbaum) tries to seduce a grief-stricken patient of her
therapist mother (Annabella Sciorra).
