For teenager Halley, love seems like an alien concept. She is disillusioned by too many examples of love gone wrong, refuses to believe that true love exists. But, when Halley meets edgy Macon, she learns what love is really all about.
After a while the bad lighting, graceless editing, sluggish dialogue and self-conscious performances begin to seem like marks of authenticity, as if the movie had been made not just for and about teenagers, but by them.
