Synopsis

Sixteen-year-old David, grappling with his father's death and a strained relationship with his mother, finds solace in his dad's old comics.

When he becomes involved with his neighbour, Holly Harper, David realises that his journey to adulthood is more complex than any comic book plot. As he confronts deeper secrets, David must find the courage to face his true self.
