After a wild holiday night leads to a humiliating sex video that rockets around the internet, a teenage girl and her family are thrust into a maelstrom of public shaming, bullying, and legal gray areas. The narrative follows the devastated daughter and her determined, high-profile mother, whose drive for justice—and revenge—spirals into a dangerous, often darkly comic pursuit. It’s a sharp exploration of consent, blame, and the permanence of digital footprints, as well as the lengths to which a parent will go to protect a child.
