When King of high school and all-around-party animal Nikau is outed, we witness his social downfall, from cool guy to complete outcast. Forced to find a new group of friends, each of whom has been ‘othered’ by smalltown New Zealand, he finds escape in a whole new world of possibilities: the internet. Nikau and his group of freakish friends must navigate the complicated world of high school (and the online world) in the pursuit of love, friendship, independence, and the confidence to be their true selves.

Set in the early days of the world wide web, Skyblogs and flip-phones, n00b follows five Kiwi teenagers, who use the internet to dream of more exciting lives…far away from their dull realities.
