Tommy begins to cut classes and drink alcohol in order to avoid his friends and their increasing awareness that he may be gay. Distressed and confused, he attempts to take his own life, landing him in the hospital. After the incident, Tommy gets help from the counselor, Ms. Martinez. As his family and friends try to deal with the revelation that Tommy is homosexual, Ms. Martinez helps Tommy through the toughest time in his life. Tommy Stands Alone is a sensitive and balanced treatment of a difficult subject, compassionate, real, and moving.
