In small-town New Zealand, a young boy feels an unexpected bond with a Mormon missionary.

A twelve-year-old boy named Pop grapples with his growing fascination as a Mormon missionary begins visiting his home. As Pop observes and learns more about the missionary, he struggles to conceal his developing feelings. After months

of spending time together, Pop is unexpectedly informed that the missionary is being transferred away. During the missionary’s final visit, Pop impulsively steals one of his socks, a memento of their friendship.
