Description: A group of teenage queer punks run into perpetual trouble with the police, when they aren't flirting over loud music or postering their high school with flyers to allow same sex couples at prom. They're basically your high school peers - pissing off the administration and taking care of each other when they get beat up by skinheads. Liz Baillie has a real talent for dialogue, characters, storytelling, and capturing New York City- especially in the moments that we all live, awkwardly making out, pulling pranks, and drinking beer.
