Bry, a 15-year-old boy, is devastated after missing out on the chance to play in the Little League National finals. Disillusioned, he escapes into the world of professional online gaming, intent on shutting out reality. However, real life doesn't make hiding easy.

2020 brought a whirlwind of challenges to us all. In Bry's case, a Japanese girlfriend new to the U.S. who faces racist threats, mean girl drama through texts, and a local polluter who poisons Bry's beloved dog.
