While her mother passes the time on a sex trip in Kenya, 13-year-old Melanie is at diet camp to shed a few pounds. Between drills in the gym and sex talk in the dorms, Melanie tries to come to terms with her feelings for the camp doctor, forty years her senior. She loves him with the innocence and loyalty of a first love, while he’s torn between his guilt and his lust; where paradise knocks, heartache is not far behind.
