Spoilers ahead

Evan is a teenager living in a working‑class town who, in his quiet life, has spent most of his years sheltered from the world. He is shy and reserved, navigating daily routines under the watchful care of his mother, Celeste, whose worry about his ability to adapt to life on his own is a constant thread in their relationship. Evan’s world changes when he unexpectedly inherits a fortune, a turn of luck that he sees as a rare invitation to take steps toward independence and, more personally, toward a longing he has carried for a long time.
