Battling a disease that is rapidly claiming his body, sixteen-year-old Charlie Stockdale embarks on a journey fueled by a single, desperate hope: survival. As his life flashes before him, he finds himself forced to relinquish everything he has known in exchange for an unlikely supposition. His quest, however, propels him beyond his surface objective, causing him to question what exactly he has been searching for all along. Based on the true story of Charles J. Stockdale, Loopholes captures a young man's struggle with Tuberculosis on the plains of the Midwest during the late nineteenth century.
