Master of his own kingdom, even if that kingdom stops at the front door – that’s how sixteen-year-old Solomon sees his agoraphobia, three years and counting since he last left the house, and he’s fine with that. Ambitious Lisa is not fine with anything less than a place on a top-tier psychiatry program, and she’ll do whatever it takes to get one. When she learns about Solomon’s solitary life, she spots her opportunity: befriend him, treat his condition, write it up, win the scholarship. Letting him into her world to earn his trust, she introduces him to her boyfriend Clark and shares her own secrets in return. Solomon starts to open up and his universe begins to expand – but as all three teens grow uncomfortably close, the facades they’ve built start to crack, and their friendships along with them.
