A hidden indie gem from 2016, we explore the captivating relationship between Neil and Julia, two misfits whose bond blooms amidst their shared passion for writing erotic fan fiction. Through their dynamic, we unravel the universal teenage struggle of fitting in, as Neil's awkwardness contrasts with Julia's rebellious yet insecure demeanor. As we share personal stories about our own adolescent trials, we reflect on how societal expectations weigh heavily on teenagers, and how breaking norms can be both terrifying and thrilling at the same time. We dissect the film's ability to seamlessly blend humor with the rawness of teenage angst, all while evoking a nostalgic early 2000s vibe.
