Kerri (Virginia Tran), an Asian-American visual effects artist in Hollywood, is working on a very secret and very racially problematic project: digitally altering a white movie star to look biracial. Her white reporter bestie Viv (Claire Fazzolari) threatens to expose it all — and destroy her friend in the process.
