April Bueno and Desire Priddie are in their last year of junior high in Brooklyn, NY.  When friends, cliques, and boyfriends change weekly, the girls struggle to maintain their friendship all the while trying to navigate the convoluted world of pre-adolescence. The inconsistent ways in which they move through this volatile period, set to the suburban backdrop of urban Brooklyn, reveal both shocking maturity and immaturity in equal doses.
