Who is SA5M?
The 5 is silent. Sa5m is 15 years old, dressed down in black jeans and t-shirt,
with hair strategically hiding her face from the world, she is a loner, one of the
school’s outsiders, constantly seen with a book in hand. Smart, with a sense of
humor and a lot of disdain for her shallow peers, Sam is a former stutterer and
now speaks slowly and deliberately. She teams up with Will on a class project,
and the two quickly discover they have a lot in common. Their friendship
eventually takes the shape of a burgeoning romance. Brought on board
as the lead singer for the band Will is managing, Sa5m emerges from her
cocoon, demonstrating grit and commitment to perfection…
