In this unflinchingly honest and refreshingly unsentimental coming-of-age story from Eliza Hittman ("Never Rarely Sometimes Always"), 14-year-old Lila spends a languid Brooklyn summer with her promiscuous friend. Eager for her own sexual awakening, Lila decides to pursue the older, thuggish Sammy. But as Lila's advances unmask her inexperience and quiet desperation, she is pushed into unwelcome new territory.
