A coming-of-age dramedy about a university student's struggle with academic pressure and personal relationships, balancing youthful optimism against the grinding realities of adult life.

When Momo leaves his small home town to go to university, he is full of enthusiasm and confidence, but slowly the pressures of study and campus living begin to grind him down. Half way through his course he finds himself at a crossroads with both his relationship and studies.
