Imagine how you would feel if you had a father to emulate and look up to as a role model along with a family who loved you unconditionally. Then suddenly, it was all taken away within a blink of an eye. This is what happened to Palassa when all he had cherished evaporated in front of him.
For Connie, an 18-year-old striving to become a man, it feels as if the world is crashing in on him. At each turn he is faced with animosity towards his goals, aspirations, and even his very own existence. The world never forgets to remind him that he has little value. With authoritarian parents who surveil and critique his every move, he at times wonders if his life is worth living.
At once, a single interaction changes everything. The two stories of Palassa and Connie combine and it is a tough pill for Connie to swallow. He has been lied to and what he has come to believe about himself and the world he has known is wrong. He wants to know more but this new desire comes with risks. His new awareness grabs the attention of everyone he knows; even the authorities. Now that he is on everyone's radar, can Connie get back to his roots? There are ones watching over him, and only they have the final answer.
