For the insecure and nondescript Elias, teenage life is a minefield. He takes his mind off it by playing his favourite video game, in which digital hero Commander Buck always saves the day. When Elias plays, he forgets all about his two irritating older sisters, his busy single mum, the bully in his new school, the world…

Elias's room is his refuge, a place where nobody bothers him. Until one day... Commander Buck himself is standing next to Elias's bed. And from then on, everything changes!
