Expelled halfway through his senior year following an incident in chemistry class, Adam is diagnosed with a mental illness.
Sent to a Catholic academy to finish out his term, Adam has little hope of fitting in and just wants to keep his illness secret until he can enroll in culinary school.
But when he meets outspoken and fiercely intelligent Maya (Taylor Russell), there is an instant soulful and comforting connection.
As their romance deepens, she inspires him to open his heart and not be defined by his condition.
Now, with the love and support of his girlfriend and family, Adam is hopeful for the very first time that he can see the light and triumph over the challenges that lie ahead.
