The film, written and directed by Danny Madden in his feature debut and based on his short Krista, chronicles the lives and trauma surrounding three teenagers living in a quiet Southern town and centers on popular theatre student Krista (Shirley Chen) who finds herself drawn to Nito (Jose Angeles), a new student at her high school who catches her attention with his impressive skating videos. Unbeknownst to her, their lives and that of her gun-loving neighbor, Adam (Will Madden), soon become intertwined — until they reach a breaking point.

“This is a home grown project, filmed at Mom and Dad’s house in that classic call-in-all-the-favors process,” Madden wrote in a statement to ComingSoon.net. “I’m so proud of the performances and all the craft that people brought to it. We’re thrilled about the release, and hope this film finds a healthy life out there with others from the class of 2020.”

The cast for the film is led by Shirley Chen (Speechless, Parenthood), Will Madden (The Werewolf) and Jose Angeles (I Hate The Color Red) and also includes Courtney Dietz (Queen America, The Dirt), Daniel Rashid (Being Frank), Anissa Matlock (Greenland, The Gifted), Stephen Ruffin (Safety, Snowfall) and Chip Carriere (Embattled).
