Abel's Field 2012


Abel's Field     Seth is trying to hold his family together and keep them in their house.  His mother died and his father has abandoned the family.  He’s working two jobs, going to high school and trying to take care of his seven-year-old twin sisters.  Seth gets into a fight at school and his punishment is to work with the groundskeeper until a job with the grass on the football field is finished.  Abel and Seth initially hate each other but over time they become friends.
