Shattered. Lost. Broken. A teenager's descent into addiction threatens to destroy not just his future, but the lives of everyone around him.

Alex Chen's life revolves around music, good grades, and meeting his parents' expectations until one catastrophic party night changes everything. When his best friend Jake ends up in critical condition after driving drunk, Alex's guilt becomes unbearable, leading him to seek escape through substances. As his world spirals out of control, only Maya, an artistic new student dealing with her own family trauma, sees through his pain. Through her persistence and creativity, she helps orchestrate an intervention that sends Alex to rehabilitation. In the stark reality of recovery, Alex must confront his demons while learning to trust again. But as he rebuilds his life one day at a time, a crucial question remains: If he can't forgive himself for that fatal night, how can he ever move forward?
