Moonshot

A recently out college baseball player is given one mission: spy on the competition. But his plan implodes when he meets his target—the rival team’s arrogant, bisexual “G.O.A.T.”—and realizes he’d much rather date the enemy than defeat him.

Ryan is 19, recently out, and “giving gay Charlie Brown” in the middle of Iowa. He’s a benchwarmer for his college baseball team and secretly dreams of studying Marine Biology, despite being oppressively landlocked. His big break comes when the team sends him, the rookie, to spy on their rivals.

The mission implodes when Ryan is caught hiding in the bushes by the target himself: Wes, the rival team’s charismatic, bisexual “G.O.A.T.” An “enemy” rivalry turns into a confusing, late-night connection. As Ryan falls for the one guy he’s supposed to hate, his professor offers him a “moonshot” escape: a marine biology internship in Florida.

Now Ryan’s life is a full-blown musical rom-com. He must decide whether to stay safe at his Iowa “home base” or risk his heart for a shot at a new life.
