Accessibility Information
About the show: How do you navigate a relationship when you don’t even know what a healthy one looks like? Can a friendship survive the tension between love and control? After a summer apart, two teenage friends reunite in their secret spot in a local park—a refuge for shared memories and trust. Everything shifts when one of them arrives with a new boyfriend whose charm gradually gives way to controlling behaviour. As red flags surface, the pull of a new relationship begins to strain the bond between the two friends, forcing them into a difficult dilemma.
