A charming story of self discovery and the power of honesty, with both yourself and with others. Craig is a 16 year old kid who thinks he is struggling with depression when he checks himself into a psychiatric hospital to get help. Only after being admitted does he find that it is for a minimum 5-day stay. And that the teen-ward is under construction so he is in 3 North, with all the other crazies. Of course, none of them are seriously crazy, so everybody has fun working on self improvement in music class, art class and playing table tennis. Craig's friendships on the floor lead to a developing maturity in himself as well as impacting those around him. This could have been really cheesy (it was only sort of cheesy) and really dumb (it wasn't). Mostly, I was surprised that it held my attention and I enjoyed the evening with Cool Craig.
