Film Synopsis:
The story is about Sage, a teenager in High School who has a love for art, is loyal to her friends, and wants to be successful in life. She's been struggling over the past year with a variety of internal battles including anxiety and depression, pressure to excel in school, and everything that comes with being a teenage girl. College is right around the corner and she's beginning to feel the pressure to make important choices that have to do with her future. Her parents work extremely hard but are rarely home to spend any quality time. They have very high expectations for her but are not aware of current struggles. These issues are beginning to noticeably spill over in her everyday life and she's wrestles to find the courage to talk to someone she can really trust.
In the midst of trying to finish her final art project of the year, friends rally around Sage and support her to finally seek help, and speak out about her issues which also unleashes her creative inspiration.
