It’s a Hitchcockian Dark Comedy
Drea (Mendes) is the Alpha it-girl at school before her boyfriend Max (Euphoria’s Austin Abrams) leaks their sex tape. She seemingly loses everything. Then she meets Eleanor (Hawke), the awkward queer transfer student who has her own high school drama. Her old bully Carissa (Ava Capri) goes to this school. She started a rumor when they were 13 at Summer camp that Eleanor pinned her down and tried to kiss her. Both hungry for revenge, the two team up and agree to take down each other’s bullies.
