1982 - South Bronx, USA. Charlie Rosa embarks on a summer of baseball, bullies, boarding school and... gulp, gulp... girls.
When Charlie receives a letter, his life becomes about big secrets, little lies, and humongous pressure. Suddenly, it's hard just being fourteen.
Luckily, he has one hell of an imaginary friend.
