Report
Young Jeremiah lives in a stable environment with loving foster parents until the day his troubled mother, Sarah, returns to claim him. Jeremiah becomes swept up in his mother's dangerous world of drugs, seedy hotels, strip joints and revolving lovers. Salvation comes in the form of the boy's ultrareligious grandparents, but soon Jeremiah's mother returns. Maternal love binds the pair together on the road until Sarah's desperate and depraved lifestyle finally consumes her.

Jeremiah is raped by his mother's boyfriends. The first time, he is pinned down on a bed. The scenes imply the act but it's still highly disturbing and triggering. The second time, he is dressed in his mother's underwear to 'seduce' a adult man. He then 'changes' into the appearance of Sarah but the man still refers to her as Jeremiah.

Sarah gaslights her son, telling him that his foster parents didn't really care about him and that they abandoned him because he was bad. She also makes him take pills and alcohol in which she lies and says its to make him feel better and to stop him from dying.
