In the sun-drenched suburbs of the Southern United States, high school student Krista discovers her passion for the theater program at her school. This marks the beginning of her creative journey and a deep connection to the world of performance.

Krista's artistic journey began in her childhood when she collaborated on various creative projects with her next-door neighbor, Adam. Their shared love for art fostered a strong bond, highlighting the importance of friendship in their youth.

Adam embarks on a quest for online fame, creating a YouTube channel dedicated to firearms tutorials. Despite his efforts, Adam faces disappointment as his channel fails to gain traction, leading to frustration with his stagnant career.

Nito, an adventurous skateboarder, meets Yoni, a lively party-goer, who invites him to an exhilarating night out. Their night takes a turn when Nito's and Krista's paths cross at the party, igniting an unexpected connection.

During the festivities, chaos erupts when police arrive to break up the party. In the midst of the commotion, a desperate guest attempts to accost Krista, prompting Nito to leap into action to protect her, leading to his arrest.

After serving time, Nito is picked up by his friends, Lena, Jarrett, and Yoni. Together, they embrace a series of mischievous adventures that further strengthen their friendships and lead to comedic escapades.

As Nito and Krista form a deeper bond, they explore their artistic sides together. Nito shares his passion for skateboarding while Krista teaches him stage combat techniques, revealing their creativity through collaborative performances.

In an attempt to revitalize his struggling YouTube channel, Adam creates a dramatized video claiming he heroically defended against a wild warthog attack. This leads to a severe backlash and a tirade of negative comments from viewers.

Lena convinces Nito, Yoni, and Jarrett to break into the house of her boss to retrieve her confiscated vape pen. Unbeknownst to them, her boss is Adam's mother, setting the stage for a series of tragic events.

As the trio breaks into the house, they inadvertently trigger a horrifying confrontation. Armed with a rifle, Adam encounters Jarrett on the staircase, resulting in a shocking and tragic escalation of violence.

In a split second, Adam takes the lives of both Jarrett and Yoni, while Nito desperately tries to escape. This senseless act of violence leaves a profound impact on the community and alters the lives of those involved forever.

The shocking events attract significant media attention, unwittingly launching Adam's YouTube channel into the spotlight. Many viewers absurdly label him a 'hero' for his brutal defense, further complicating the tragedy's aftermath.

Krista grapples with the aftermath of the violence she witnessed, burdened by the loss of Nito. As she walks home from school in a fog of despair, the memories of that tragic night haunt her relentlessly.

Krista confronts Adam at a firearms conference where he is invited to speak. In a moment filled with anguish, she compels him to wrap his hands around her neck, drawing the attention of nearby officers and highlighting the weight of her grief.

As time passes, Krista returns to her theater pursuits, finding a glimmer of healing amidst the chaos. However, the scars from that tragic day remain etched in her heart and mind, a constant reminder of the violence that changed everything.
