Florida Justice Transitions abrite 120 délinquants sexuels condamnés. Comme dans de nombreux autres États américains, les délinquants sexuels ne sont pas autorisés à vivre à moins de 300 mètres des lieux fréquentés par les enfants. Pour cette raison, de nombreux délinquants sexuels vivent sous des ponts ou dans des bois – ou dans le parc à roulottes Florida Justice Transitions – connu sous le nom de Pervert Park. Les crimes commis par les résidents vont de simples délits à des actes horribles insupportables à envisager.

The film, titled after a poem by Wheeler, details the abuse he received at the hands of his classmates because of his homosexuality. It also presents interviews and a cross-nation road-trip with members of Young Gay America, an online teen organization for gays, and compares the teasing and physical abuse Jim suffered to the increasingly open attitudes towards homosexuality six years later when the film was first shown.

Ce film dépeint les pratiques cruelles et déshumanisantes de la traite des êtres humains et de l'esclavage moderne à l'échelle mondiale. Filmé sur cinq continents, dans une douzaine de pays, "Not My Life" emmène le spectateur dans un monde où des millions d'enfants sont exploités via un panel stupéfiant de pratiques, incluant le travail forcé, le tourisme sexuel, l'exploitation sexuelle, et les enfants soldats.
