We think you'll be very happy here.
Wayward streams in the US on one subscription service — Netflix — and nowhere else right now: no free stream, and no rent-or-buy option. Here is what that means for watching it.
A small-town police officer grows suspicious of a school for troubled teenagers and its charismatic founder. As unsettling details emerge, the officer is drawn into a tense mystery involving the academy, its students, and the community around it.
