Hesher

After the death of his mother in a tragic car accident in Los Angeles two months earlier in this unusual, dark, gritty, 2010 film dotted with foul language and violence, a troubled 13-year-old boy (Devin Brochu), who lives with his depressed widowed father (Rainn Wilson) and elderly grandmother (Piper Laurie), finds his life continuing to unravel as he tries to escape the bullying of an older classmate (Brendan Hill) with the help of a down-on-her-luck grocery store cashier (Natalie Portman) and the taunting and mayhem of a nihilistic, wild-mannered, pot-smoking, tattooed loner (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) who suddenly moves into his dysfunctional household.
