BRANDON

Brandon is a good kid: an A/B student (with an occasional C for good measure); a regular attendee at Sunday Service with his mother; and an all-around good homeboy to his friends. But Brandon's best friend, Mia, is in trouble. Brandon wants to help, but she won't talk to him, leaving him feeling useless and isolated. While he should be concerned with good grades and girls, Brandon is worried about Mia's safety, and is contemplating murder in order to save her. When he sneaks into her house to check on her, he's not ready for what he discovers. His actions change him, changes his relationship with Mia, and thrust him into the deep waters of adulting…but Brandon can barely swim.
