Ever since Oli found a pamphlet for a remote island commune as a kid, it's all she can think about.
Now that she's nearing the end of high school, feeling frustrated with the mounting pressure to choose a career and follow a path she has no interest in, the desire to escape it all has been steadily increasing.
Everything comes to a head when Oli's relationship with her best friend goes south and she claps back at a school bully with more than just words.
Oli flees to find the commune on a Gulf Island off the coast of Vancouver, taking with her Milo, who can't help but hide his feelings behind the safety of a video camera, and Alvin, a shy teen who sees more than he lets on.
Behind them trails Liam, Oli's ex-best-friend and sometimes love interest, who wants to apologize for the way things went down.
