All her life, Sara recalls being second to her brother, Samuel, due to the love their judgmental mother shows him. However, when senior year rolls around, Sara discovers a new version of the video game she used to play with Samuel growing up, and this helps launch her on a quest to prove herself to those around her. Race to Infinity follows Sara as she unpacks her shaky upbringing and struggles to find her worth when faced with expectations that seem impossible to reach.
