The somewhat naive, many “balls” in the air, LINDA becomes her savour, when she takes on Esthers virginity issue. Everyone in high school has, or want to get laid, so this shouldn’t be a problem. But Esther’s clumsiness, insecurities and desperate need to fit in puts her in a lot of awkward situations. At the same time, an unexpected friendship grows between the girls, not without its own problems.
