A livestreamer using a borrowed photo attracts a mafia don who unmasks her yet stays loyal.
Julian Hart, an NYU student, performs nightly as Ivy, a masked streamer whose profile uses another woman's photograph. The channel's most generous supporter, Dante, a mafia leader, pleads to serve her until Julian cuts contact. Months later, roommate Bianca introduces her brother Dante, who instantly recognizes Julian. Instead of retaliation, he offers unwavering devotion. Complications rise when Dante's fiancée reveals the stolen image belongs to her cousin, a stalking victim. Julian apologizes, endures a drugging attempt, and gradually earns the family's acceptance.
