Storyline
Charles Highway, a 19-year-old guy consumed by his sexual desires, has devised a novel way to keep track of the girls he’s interested in – by storing their biographies on his computer. Rachel Noyce, a girl he met at a party, is one of them, and despite knowing that she’s in a relationship, Charles decides to pursue her. He sends her a humorous video asking her out, and to his surprise, she accepts. Thus begins a steamy love affair between the two.
