Choosing between living the life you want and living the life
you're "supposed to have" is not always an easy choice. Noah, embracing his
true-self, wants to pursue a career in costume design, something his loving,
public service parents would never approve of. Azarie, the perfect, model
daughter of a very stern, traditional family, dreams of embracing the hobbies
she secretly loves, hobbies her social circle would never abide by.
The
two live different lives and their social statuses keep them from ever crossing
paths until they have a chance encounter that exposes some common ground: the
desire to be who they truly are. Together, the two set out to put it all on the
line and show everyone what they're made of and what they want to achieve in the
form of cosplay. Their growing friendship will be tested and their faith in
themselves, as well as each other, will be tried.
Up-and-coming writer
