[edit] Plot
The film tells the story of a teenage girl, Vic, who falls in love with a boy from the same school. She and her friends are anxious to explore relationships at "boums", or parties, without the watchful eyes of their parents. Although there is a lot of innuendo, the relationships are fairly innocent. At the same time, Vic's parents have extramarital relationships before reuniting towards the end of the film.
