Synopsis

Jordan is a typical teenage entrepreneur, always looking for a way to make money. He finds a huge, purple monster and sees a real chance to make big money by becoming the monster's manager. The media outlets are waiting to be tapped and the monster,Andretti, will do anything he says. But, as Jordan's friends get to know and like Andretti, they accuse Jordan of exploiting him and turn the publicity machine round to expose his greed. Jordan has to make some tough decisions about what matters most: the money or the monster's welfare.
