Filmed over the course of three years, this intimate documentary follows Ginger and Dusty, sisters growing up in New York City as they navigate high school politics and growing up in front of the lens. The teens are disarmingly eloquent and surprisingly candid as they let the camera witness the most confusing, painful, and exciting time of their lives.
