The power of being true to yourself.

DramaRomance

Forced to give up his dreams of art school, Zach works dead-end jobs to support his sister and her son. Questioning his life, he paints, surfs and hangs out with his best friend, Gabe. When Gabe's older brother returns home for the summer, Zach suddenly finds himself drawn into a relationship he didn't expect.

VIBE

A quiet, sun-drenched coming-of-age story about finding yourself and unexpected connections. It feels like a hazy summer memory, full of longing, tentative romance, and the bittersweet ache of growing up.
