Synopsis
Troy Bolton, pressured by basketball and his father, seeks his own path before high school ends.
Coached by his father, high school student Troy Bolton has been playing basketball for his entire life. However, he has never been passionate about the sport and feels like he is unable to choose his own path—especially when compared to his girlfriend, the smart and beautiful Gabriella Montez. As the final day of high school approaches, Troy resolves to prepare himself for the future.
