'Manages to bottle up that chaotic and messy feeling of girlhood.' Stylist


Huddled at a bedroom window, a group of teenagers peer out at their scorched, swampy, fame-hungry town. Taking turns with the binoculars, their gaze sweeps across the highway and the abandoned construction site to the lake. Figures drift across the landscape: mothers, fathers, a preacher's daughter.

These girls know everything about everyone - perhaps too much.
