ABOUT THE FILM

Megan is an all-American girl. A cheerleader. She has a boyfriend. But Megan doesn’t like kissing her boyfriend very much. And she’s pretty touchy with her cheerleader friends. Her conservative parents worry that she must be a lesbian and send her off to “sexual redirection” school where she must — with other lesbians and gays — learn how to be straight.

A conversation-heart-colored queer feminist cult classic, Natasha Lyonne (Russian Doll) leads a fantastic ensemble cast that includes Clea DuVall, Cathy Moriarty, Melanie Lynskey, and RuPaul.
