Introduction by co-writer, director Peter Sollett and co-writer Eva Vives.

After getting caught in the bedroom of a girl considered undesirable by neighborhood peers, New York Dominican teen Victor Vargas (Victor Rasuk) strives to repair the fabricated illusion of his player image by setting his sights on popular Judy Ramirez (Judy Marte). As Judy entertains Victor’s advances, only so other boys stop hitting on her, Victor finds he’s developing feelings for her. The relationship acts as a reprieve from the chaos and pressures Victor experiences at home; he’s seen as a menace and bad influence by his strict religious grandmother, a nuisance by his sister, and an idol by his little brother.
