Meet Sullivan, an average suburban teenager with a not so average problem: his best friend has a crush on the same person that he does. The problem? His friend is a girl; the crush is a guy. An obviously straight guy. And Sullivan is really not ready to come out to anyone, especially not his only ally against his evil twin sister. Add in a helping of high school angst, dysfunctional family fun, and a '60s retro band needing a piano player for a fast paced coming of age story all audiences will enjoy.
