SYNOPSIS...
Miles From Home, is a tale of lost innocence. Miles Conway, (Ty Hodges), 17, is forced to fend for himself after his mother’s drug addiction causes the family to lose everything they own. Abandoned also by his older brother, Miles is introduced to a group of teenage prostitutes and is seduced into a world of sex, money, and drugs. They become his family. He is then confronted by his inner demon, but it is too late. Innocence is lost. Miles is torn between his two worlds after he meets Natasha Freeman, (Meagan Good), 19, a free spirited college student. Without effort, Natasha shows Miles there is still beauty in life. In order to survive, he must learn to overcome his circumstances and recognize a blessing when he sees one. There is a war within him and Miles has to make a decision. Will he choose life or death? Miles quickly learns the greatest fear we will ever have to face is to confront the person inside.
