About

George, a lonely and fatalistic teen who's made it all the way to his senior year without ever having done a real day of work, is befriended by Sally, a popular but complicated girl who recognizes in him a kindred spirit.
Instead of a polished teen romance, this film embraces the awkward, unpolished reality of social isolation and academic apathy. It captures the specific melancholy of being a high school misfit through sharp dialogue and a quiet, unhurried pace.
