The film opens with the a title card and the sound of Carlos Santana's guitar solo from the song "Black Magic Woman". Paul Green, the primary subject of the film introduces the evening's concert. The camera pans to reveals that the guitarist is twelve-year-old C.J. Tywoniak. The School is then introduced, with Green re-enacting a scene from the film The Silence of the Lambs as Jame Gumb for a group of students. This is followed by the first of a number of interview segments with Green throughout the film. He explains why he started a performance-based program. 9 year old twin boys Asa and Tucker Collins are interviewed, followed by an interview with Tywoniak and his parents about his future in music, teenage girl Madi Diaz-Svalgard, a Quaker singer/songwriter who frequently clashes with Green and finally Will O'Conner a less-successful student who credits the School with saving his life. These students are followed closely through the rest of the film.

Peter Gwazdauskas, a special needs boy with Downs Syndrome, is going to a traditional school with regularly developing students. Originally, he was in a special needs school with autistic/special needs students. Peter was enrolled in a traditional school because federal law states that special needs students should be educated with regularly developing students in traditional schools. Peter's first half of the school year was not going well because he was doing behaviors such as making loud noises, rolling around on the floor, and being injurious towards other students in class. But when it was the middle of the year in January, things started to improve much better for Peter and he did just fine towards the end of the school year. Because of his improvements throughout the year, Peter received an award for being an exceptional student on the last day of school along with his other classmates.

Des extraits de films tournés dans l'adolescence et la jeunesse de Sabine montrent cette jeune fille « différente », déscolarisée après l'âge de 12 ans. Au collège, elle a réagi aux moqueries des petits garçons d'école primaire et des filles de sa classe et de tous ceux qui l'appelaient « Sabine la folle » en se blessant, se mordant, se griffant ou se déshabillant dans la cour.
