Ripped straight from the headlines! On December 4, 1972, seven-year-old Steven Stayner got into a car with a stranger who convinced the boy that he was his new dad. Steven was mentally and physically abused in the most horrifying ways. Seven long years later, Steven miraculously finds his way home. But his nightmare isn't over yet — not until his captor is brought to justice.

"It is weird that I enjoyed this movie? A child is abducted by a nasty man that I wouldn't mind seeing the back of, based on true events, but I like how the story was told and how he eventually got back to his family seven years later. And even though it doesn't all work out, it's not a typical hollywood movie that has everything working out in a nice little neat ending, which was probably what made it so interesting to watch."
