Hill Harper plays Michael, a Toronto security guard who wants to be a photographer.

One day in a laundromat, he meets young urban professional Jasmine (Marlyne N. Afflack), who has been celibate for some time. After a few dates, Michael finds out that his little porn habit has caused him to fear actual sex with another person.
