What if the people you least expected became the reason you kept going?

When five strangers are forced together for an English class project, they each carry a hidden storm:

• Emmit battles crippling anxiety every time he walks into the classroom.
• Jake hides grief and survivor’s guilt after losing his brother.
• Sasha feels torn between two cultures—and two versions of herself.
• Liam fights depression behind a calm, quiet exterior.
• Mia struggles to break free from a controlling relationship.

Alone, none of them knows how to ask for help. But together, they discover that true strength isn’t about being perfect—it’s about showing up for one another, even on the darkest days. Through late-night group chats, tear-filled conversations, and the simple power of presence, they learn that resilience isn’t something you find in yourself—it’s something you build with your community.
