"The Boy and the Crow" is the gripping, fast-paced story of
16-year-old big city gang member, Daniel Cagney. Convicted of a
crime in juvenile court, he is sentenced to spend a year's
probation on the Vermont farm of his grandparents, whom he has not
seen for many years. From the moment he arrives at the farm, Danny
struggles to adjust to his new life on foreign turf. He continues
to believe that it is only a matter of time before he escapes to
the city, but a young crow, which he almost kills one day,
"conspires" to change his mind. Under his grandparents' watchful
eyes, Danny begins to resist the pull of the ghetto that he has
left behind. He meets a beautiful girl who accepts him for who he
is, but her zealous father wants him out of his daughter's life for
good. To make matters worse, Danny soon becomes the target of local
bullies and the county sheriff. Then, his fellow gang members come
calling.
