Pae, a twelfth grader under parental pressure to enter to a prestigious university, decides to make a short film as the university allows to consider that in lieu of exam results. He decides to craft a short film centred around Joe, his late deskmate who tragically passed away in an accident. But he has no knowledge about filmmaking at all. The filmmaking mission begins with Pae's future at stake, aided by a group of nerds from the audiovisual club. Eventually, the short film project gains recognition across the entire school, and Pae finds himself under pressure from Joe's family to deliver a satisfactory film about their beloved son. However, this project leads them to uncover a secret that Joe had hidden from them, a revelation that threatens to change their perspective on their dear departed friend forever.
