Powder (1995)

In the quiet rural landscape, Sheriff Barnum stumbles upon an extraordinary secret hidden beneath the quietude of a farmhouse basement: a young teenager, known as "Powder," orphaned by the death of his elderly grandparents. His upbringing has been one of isolation and knowledge absorbed through the pages of books, his world contained within the farm's boundaries. Now cast into the harsh and unfamiliar environment of a state home for boys, Powder struggles to navigate the turbulent waters of social integration. Marked out by his startling appearance, Powder becomes a target for his peers' unkind taunts and the fear of the small town residents. Yet, beneath the surface of his oddity lies a remarkable gift, a mysterious power that transcends the mundane and touches the realm of the extraordinary. As he unlocks his abilities, performing feats beyond imagination, the cruel mockery gradually gives way to awe and wonder. With each display of his uncanny talents, Powder alters the fabric of the lives around him, sparking change in ways no one could have ever anticipated. As the town's fear and ridicule evolve into fascination, they begin to fathom the depth of Powder's potential. This profound transformation forms the heart of this tale, a testament to the extraordinary that can dwell within the seemingly ordinary.

Powder is a drama movie featuring Mary Steenburgen.
