Synopsis

Based on the most awkward year of your life.

Thirteen-year-old Kayla endures the tidal wave of contemporary suburban adolescence as she makes her way through the last week of middle school — the end of her thus far disastrous eighth grade year — before she begins high school.

Captures the questions I had at that age alongside the cringe really well. Time capsule of 2016 culture too — the old UI for Instagram and Snapchat got me soo nostalgic 💔💔
