Sullen EMO Ethan is expelled from private school after he tries to commit suicide in the schoolyard. In his new school he meets Trinity, a beautiful albeit naive and blindly optimistic christian girl who is determined to convert him. Even though he is under her spell, the last thing on his mind is joining her evangelical rock group. What he really wants is to join the alternative rock band, “Worst Day Ever” and be part of the EMO scene. Will Ethan and Trinity find a way to be together?
