When Digital Detox Becomes an Unexpected Adventure
Imagine being a tech billionaire's son, surrounded by every digital luxury imaginable, and suddenly finding yourself stranded at a wellness retreat with no electronics allowed. This is precisely the nightmare that befalls Jett Baranov, whose string of outrageous stunts (including blowing up school toilets and causing fighter jets to scramble) finally pushes his father Vladimir-founder of tech giant Fuego-to ship him off to "The Oasis of Mind & Body Wellness" in rural Arkansas. For Jett, having his phone, laptop, and tablet confiscated feels like having his lifeline to civilization severed. His immediate response? Rebellion-wearing clothes inside out, falling asleep during meditation, and complaining incessantly about the vegetarian food. When he finally manages a midnight raid to retrieve his precious F-phone, his desperate call to his father yields only one response: "You're staying put." Little does Jett know that this forced disconnection will lead to discoveries far more meaningful than anything he could find on a screen.
