The(ir) Blurb...

When a 16 year-old Archie starts exploring his sexuality, he stumbles across the dating app 'Findrr', thinking it will solve his problems. He meets man after man, with countless bad encounters until he is trapped in a toxic cycle of hookups of his own creation. After basing his life around the app, he tries another app and goes on a date. Because of his pre-assembled idea of what dating is though, he assumes the date is asking for a hook up in the toilets, and when Archie follows him through he realises he is gravely mistaken. Understanding he is fundamentally doing the wrong things, he faces the truth that he is stuck in his own ways, and goes back to the app, at the end sending the message that started it: You Free Tonight?
