A cautionary teen romance that begins with tender adoration but descends into obsession and tragedy, exploring how youthful passion can spiral into destructive behavior.

As their romance unfolds, Jade and David's growing love for one another becomes the scorn of Jade's father. However, when Jade's grades begin to drop, her father forbids the young couple from seeing each other for 30 days. Driven insane with frustration and desire, David attempts to reverse the decision, with catastrophic results.
