Trevor McKinney is twelve years old and has just started seventh grade in Las Vegas. His social studies teacher, Eugene Simonet, is carrying physical and emotional scars. He gives his students a project: come up with a plan that makes the world a better place. Trevor calls it "pay it forward," and the idea is that the person who receives a favor doesn't pay it back but instead does it for three other people. The assignment seems simple, but Trevor takes it very seriously. In Simonet's classroom, he begins to shape his proposal. The film is directed by Mimi Leder, and the lead roles are played by Haley Joel Osment, Kevin Spacey and Helen Hunt.

But I...I guess it's hard a hard for some people who are so used to things the way they are, even if they're bad, to change, 'cause I guess they kinda give up. And when they do, everybody kinda loses.
[to Trevor], so I'm just gonna tell you the truth. [A beat.] I have a problem. [A beat.] I have a really bad problem. I gotta stop. [A beat.]
