Ambitious academic, Geneva, is at a crossroads.

Taking a gap year to focus solely on her college applications, unaddressed fears and inner demons resurface as she is forced to determine what she really wants for the future. Coupled with the increased pressure and high expectations from the people around her, she plunges into a deep state of catharsis and self-reflection. 

Helpless, she finds solace among a group of high-schoolers, whose music is their passion. Her poems, the only creative outlet in which she truly pours out her soul into, help the struggling band find their rhythm once more. 

Perhaps, even find herself in the process.

I hold my breath, anxious as I wait to hear what he's going to say next. "But I genuinely don't know if that's enough for me anymore .."
