CGiii Comment

Geeky, Christian teens not behaving badly...and creepy Christian adults perving over the young, geeky bucks...

Perhaps Cone should re-consider...

As a writer...he has no discernible talent.

As an actor...hopefully, he was acting, is hugely irritating and pleasantly punchable.

As a director...he has the ability best suited to a small town amateur dramatic theatre group.

As a producer...well, he managed to produce this...

Truly...if you do decide to watch this, have a bucket handy...

The(ir) Blurb...

A vivid, dynamic Southern coming-of-age drama, takes place in the transitional space between high school and college, when life seems to be all questions and no answers, and the future is scarily wide open. Set in and around a Charleston, SC Baptist church, weaving through this ensemble piece are three main characters - Brea, an introspective pastor's daughter experiencing debilitating doubt, the hyperactive Laura, Brea's best friend and a devout believer, and Tim, the open-hearted son of a single father, confronting his homosexuality for the first time. Tensions and buried feelings abound, as colleges are chosen and adults behave badly, as Brea, Laura and Tim attempt to hang onto what they have, all the while yearning to break free.
