Storia
When an Asian American girl from the wrong side of the tracks is accepted by a prestigious university, she finds that her academic prowess can be put to lucrative use.
Riassunto
At the cusp of the 1980s, Angie, an Asian American girl from a challenging urban background, secures acceptance to a prestigious university. Her academic brilliance propels her into a lucrative endeavor when financial aid falls through - synthesizing Ecstasy in the organic chemistry lab and becoming one of the west coast's largest distributors under the moniker "X." Balancing her dual life as an exemplary coed and profit-driven dealer, Angie finds herself drawn to Bree, a young girl mirroring her own troubled past. As she navigates the high life, Angie's recklessness sets off a catastrophic event that threatens to consume her. Can she learn to embrace love and transcend her past before it's too late?
