It all started with a secret email…
Sixteen-year-old Simon, who has never revealed to anyone that he is gay, is trying to stay away from a turbulent life. But when the e-mail he sent reaches the wrong hands, he faces the danger of his secrets being revealed. Simon is actually the victim of blackmail: If he doesn't make peace between the class clown Martin and the girl he likes, his sexual identity will be revealed. Worse still, the boy with the nickname Mavi, with whom he communicates via e-mail, will also be exposed.
Simon's life becomes chaotic as unexpected events occur in the once-serious group of friends and his correspondence with Mavi gradually turns into flirting. Simon, who doesn't like change at all, must find a way to voluntarily leave his comfort zone before he's forced out of it... before he upsets his friends, makes himself awkward, and misses his chance at happiness with the most confusing yet sweetest man he's ever met.
