A period piece set in the 1990s. Clay is in his senior year of college, raised in a pro-Black household and at home inside the world he grew up in. A sociology assignment pairs him with Destiny, a white classmate from an open, churchgoing family, for one week: stay close, document what you do, watch how the other person reacts, and report back on what you share and what you don’t.

The week turns the assignment back on him. What starts as a class exercise becomes the first honest look he has taken at himself, and at the world he was brought up in.

A son moves back home to an overbearing mother who worries he doesn’t have a life of his own. She pushes him to get out, meet women, do the things he would never do on his own. He goes along with it, and the trying goes about as well as you would expect, until he meets one of her clients and the two of them click.

For a while he is exactly what his mother asked for. Then he understands she never meant this woman. The closer he and the client get, the harder his mother pushes the other way, and he is left choosing between the life she talked him into and the one part of it he actually wants.
