The film features performances by Ebony Obsidian and Jefferson White.
James is an introverted freshman who shares a dorm with Lance, a wealthy student who excels with women and prefers casual hookups. In a classroom where James is clearly the strongest student in a basic programming course, Lance initially pitches a light workload so no one else in the class has to work. But Lance soon shifts gears when he wants to build something bigger: a campus-wide app for hookups. He discovers that James has been coding since childhood, and he recruits him to create the ultimate hookup platform, a bold project that promises to pay for James’s transfer to an Ivy League school.
