Richie trades the warmth of his friends' company for the thrilling promise of an online encounter, but once in the apartment of the Bodybuilder the initial promise turns into awkward but vulnerable conversation, which eventually gives way to an unusual ritual- one that is physical, intimate, and strangely liberating at the same time. But is Richie interpreting the tension between them correctly, or will he return to square one adrift in his phone screen? A strangely awkward, funny and tender look at the miscommunication and connection all within the liminal space of online dating.
