A socially isolated teen overcomes the pressure to be homophobic and transphobic and instead finds the empathy inherent in his nature.
Jake, whose single mom is out working most of the time, keeps mostly to himself at high school, spending time with his more assertive friend Buddy. After being persuaded to attend a protest against LGBTQ+ students with Buddy, Jake gets into a fight with a member of the gender-sexuality alliance club, getting himself in trouble at school and home. But Jake soon discovers a very personal connection to this issue—his employer, Max, who serves a father figure to him, is in fact trans. Jake rethinks what his values are and finds that he has more in common with members of the LGBTQ+ community than he thought.
