Synopsis

When twelve-year-old Trevor McKinney begins seventh grade in Atascadero, his social studies teacher gives the class an assignment to devise a plan that will change the world for the better. Trevor's idea is simple: Pay It Forward — each person who receives a favor must perform three favors of their own. What starts as a school project ripples through his community in unexpected ways, touching everyone from a struggling man on the street to a teacher facing despair and a woman whose kindness becomes an act of redemption.
