On the surface, Bill Truman's life seems perfect. He has a beautiful loving wife, Kate, and a remarkable daughter, Shay, whom he adores more than anything else in the world. He loves his hi-tech job, enjoys drinking with Al, his wisecracking buddy, and bowls with the best of them. And, although his young daughter has started early on the rebellious teen years (when asked how her day was: “What is this, a Senate hearing?”) - Life is Good.

Then one day - everything changes.

Bill stumbles upon a web site that advertises sexual images of very young girls posing on webcams from their own homes.
He grimaces and almost clicks off when one of the photos catches his eye. The picture is fuzzy, the faces somewhat hidden, but there is one detail that seems terribly recognizable – The Pink Dress.

The same dress his twelve-year old daughter owns. Is this Shay? And her best friend, Trish? Half naked on the Internet?


Bill is paralyzed. A soft-spoken accountant, whose family's history has caused him to be overly fearful of confrontation, Bill puts off facing his daughter; and instead, sets off to discover who’s behind the shady web site. Before he knows it, Bill is propelled into a sleazy world of underage Internet porn: a dark domain of strange and frightening characters, out of which creeps Mad Jack - Bill Truman's hidden enemy.

Mad Jack: someone whose charming smile says: “Stand right there while I set you on fire.” Someone good at what he does,
and what he does is evil.

Bill’s life is turned inside out. Maybe things weren’t so perfect after all: He begins to suspect his wife is having an affair; his casual drinking takes an ugly turn; a secret from his past stirs up dark questions that cast doubts on who Bill really is.

Bill is confused and emotionally torn. How to be the father his daughter needs while his own inner demons threaten to overwhelm him? Does he have the courage to challenge the external threats from a dangerous, yet seductive enemy? How can he, one man, deal with a hyper-media driven society that seduces and sexualizes youth for its enormous appetite and consumption? A society that chews up the young, then spits them out: cynical, emotionally scarred, spiritually numb?

After numerous twists (is his boss involved?), salacious temptations (Tina Green, every heterosexual pig’s fantasy), humorous moments (bowling naked), and odd characters (the overweight teen boy in an I Dream of Jeanie outfit), Bill determines that he must confront his fears, confront his wife, confront Shay.

Except Shay is gone.

Her room is empty - covered in red-sprayed graffiti. The message: Sex, drugs, rave and roll!!!

Bill and Kate frantically search for their precious daughter. Where is she? Rave in a Cave? The Room of Many Doors? Caught in Mad Jack’s web? Can they locate Shay before she becomes one more teen torn and tossed on the street?

This "out-of-the-headlines" suspense drama is an entertaining film interwoven with tension, humor, surprise turns, and ultimately: joy and redemption.
