THE MANUAL is about Sonny, an 8-year-old boy who is sent away from home as his father believes he has characteristics that could lead to homosexuality. After twenty-four years of treatment and psychiatric institutions, Sonny returns home for a funeral, and attempts to save his 7-year-old niece from experiencing a similar fate.
