About the film:
A delightful coming-of-age story from South Africa.

Seventeen-year-old, adorkable Luthando expects a fairly ordinary academic year until the arrival of Ayanda turns her world upside down. In the aftermath of this encounter, Luthando is forced to navigate multiple identities as she struggles to avoid rejection from both her mother and her schoolmates, while coming to terms with her sexuality.

With desire, friendship and rivalry rushing around the school corridors, this is an original take on first love, self discovery and balancing your desires with the demands of fitting in.
