Leaked

How far would you go to ruin the person who ruined you?

This
is the story of Heather Chang. A fiery, quick-tempered high school
student who lives in the fictional small town of Gillwood, Florida. She
enjoys reading, creating memes, and getting revenge at anyone who wrongs
her in any way.
One sunny morning at Gillwood High, her whole
world changes forever when she’s privately approached by Jacob Boruta, a
malicious computer hacker and classmate. She catches his eye, and he
makes a grand romantic gesture to show his affection, despite never
having met her before. It all turns sour when Jacob makes an
inappropriate, sexual advance towards her. She grows angry, violently
rejects him, and takes the opportunity to record and humiliate him for
what he’s done. When she exposes what he did online, Jacob plots
revenge. He hacks into Heather’s phone, steals her nude pictures, and
leaks them all over social media in order to completely shame and
degrade her. Soon after, Heather begins receiving a barrage of toxic and
verbal abuse online. This leaves Heather furious and seeking revenge
herself. She enlists the help of a sympathetic athlete named Eddy and
together they plan to make Jacob’s life absolutely miserable.
Jacob
just doesn’t take it however – he continually strikes back with equal
force and the two become intertwined in a bitter feud that involves
relentless bullying, vicious lies, chaotic fights, and shocking
betrayals.
While all of this unfolds -- a parallel storyline from
a year earlier is told from Indira’s perspective, Heather’s former
friend and classmate who suddenly left school, never to return. She
sheds light on dark secrets from her past which involve herself, Eddy,
and Heather. As a result, Heather’s ultimate quest for revenge
transforms into something much more complicated when she’s forced to
grapple with the unintended consequences of her past actions once they
surface in the present day.
This socially relevant thriller
explores the consequences of bullying, the destructive nature of revenge
and the complexities of granting forgiveness to those who may never
deserve it.
