NYC PREMIERE A short documentary following Tim, an Asian-American 18-year-old, who has 3 million followers on Instagram and spends most of his time online. Although Tim usually shares funny memes on his massively popular page, he occasionally posts about mental health. As the film explores his reason for these posts, we discover that he has created a different identity for himself online than in real life. Will he be able to reconcile the two identities? Tackling issues of identity, family, and communication, this is a heartbreaking yet ultimately uplifting story about a Generation Z teenager at an important crossroads in his life.
