Madison, a fledgling social media star backpacking alone through Thailand, is eager to capture content and find herself beyond curated feeds. When she encounters CW, a charismatic traveler who seems to glide through life without boundaries, Madison is drawn to the promise of freedom, spontaneity, and a faster path to online fame. At first their connection feels liberating: new experiences, glamorous moments, and a intoxicating sense of possibility that feeds both her camera and her confidence.
But the glow of adventure dims as CW’s interest grows controlling and the line between mentorship and manipulation blurs. What begins as a seductive education in living off the grid evolves into a tense psychological struggle, forcing Madison to confront how far she’ll go to protect her image, her independence, and her safety. The film is a taut exploration of influence, identity, and the perilous mix of vulnerability and ambition in an age obsessed with visibility.
