Thirteen-year-old Kayla endures the tidal wave of contemporary suburban adolescence as she makes her way through the last week of middle school – the end of her thus far disastrous eighth grade year – before she begins high school.

The screening will be introduced by composer Anna Meredith and performed with a live score as part of the London Soundtrack Festival.
