Synopsis

A touching and comic story of first love between two girls in their senior year of high school. Randy Dean, a rebellious tomboy who lives with her lesbian aunt and her aunt's lover in a working class neighborhood, falls in love with Evie Roy, a smart and beautiful African-American who is one of the most popular girls at their high school. Convinced that something's wrong with her posh Range Rover, Evie meets Randy when she drives into the gas station where Randy has a mind-numbing afterschool job. Intrigued and charmed by each other, the two meet again at school and begin an unlikely romance that sets into motion a series of comic misadventures culminating in a showdown at a motel where family and friends converge to keep the young lovers from running away together.
