It's John's junior year of college and he couldn't be happier. A chance to get away from home and be himself, college is more than an education, its freedom.
Alongside him, Alexander is starting his freshman year of college, and he's terrified. Presented with an opportunity to escape a dark past and lonely life, Alex believes it might be too good to be true.
When the two are set to be college roommates, their friendship begins easily, but in the face of confusion and new feelings, will John be able to show Alexander the brighter side of life? And will Alexander be able to help John come to terms with his own past as well?
