Synopsis

Sixteen-year-old James Whitman struggles to overcome anxiety and depression by seeking advice from Dr. Bird. In his magical realism inspired world, James goes on a whimsical, but emotionally charged search to solve the mystery of the disappearance of his sister, after an altercation with their parents. While James struggles to connect with his parents, he deals with the intense social anxiety of high school life while navigating first love with Sophie — a precocious girl from school who has her own agenda and a boyfriend Martin that hasn’t quite learned to let go of her. Our two lovestruck teens set out on a quest to find Jorie, finding themselves in what appears to be a cult of sorts.
