When Takku, a troubled teenage girl, won't stop getting into fights at school, the school threatens her with state custody. Her equally troubled mother must team up with a pot-smoking teacher and an alcoholic stranger to help save Takku from a downward spiral of hate and aggression. Headfirst is a story about missing teeth, strange friends, hidden dreams, and long-gone love. And about a rabbit.
