She quickly befriends other influencers and enters a competition to win a $500,000 sponsorship from Vrap Vodka. Emboldened by the chance to save her family farm, Karissa pushes herself to get more followers by posting more daring photos on the beach and at the clubs. But her success is threatened when she and the others are kidnapped as part of a larger conspiracy they never saw coming.
