Boxlist takeMoving and unsavoury: a weighty drama, small-scale rather than epic. Best if you like edge over warmth.

Synopsis
Freshman high-school student Melinda has refused to speak ever since she called the cops on a popular summer party.

But Melinda does manage to find solace in her art class headed by Mr. Freeman.
