Footsteps Frank John Aita

Remorseful for the death of a boyhood friend, seventeen-year-old Johnny recounts his footsteps through the past five years. Haunted by memories and unable to mend his luckless decisions, Johnny desperately seeks something noble to cradle. Choosing to walk the path he took on the last untroubled day of his youth, Johnny tackles his demons and depression, seeking to connect with his lost happiness.

Responding to Johnny's actions, his silent call for help, his childhood friends reluctantly come together one last time to save their long-ago leader. Doing so reawakens their own hidden nightmares while setting forth the true value of friendship. Faced with the beginning of the end of their innocence too, his rescuers must individually and as a group revisit heartache and pain as they search for Johnny throughout the shattered streets of New York City.
