When Jake Blanchard gets a job as a student set designer at the York School of Arts, it''s an exciting first step towards realizing his dream of making movies. But soon enough he finds himself starring in a drama of his own creation. Nothing in Jake''s life is the same after Vanni, a whip-smart, wisecracking Indian-Irish-Canadian joins his class, and after Jake meets the unforgettable Alba, who is as stunning as she is unattainable. Jake is tongue-tied around Alba and enlists Vanni''s help.

By the end, as in any good comedy, tensions are resolved and Jake''s world has been re-made, though in a way he could not have anticipated. Less
