When Billy succeeded in impressing the producers of a constructed reality show, he believed his life was set to change forever. A year later, while some of Billy’s co-stars’ careers are thriving, Billy is struggling to balance the afterglow of fame with social media and tabloid kiss-and-tells and the resulting assumptions people have made about his character, forcing deep vulnerabilities to the surface.
