Dirty Girl
Danielle, who’s garnered every naughty moniker imaginable for herself, is loved and hated in equal parts in her conventional small-town for her totally blasé morality.
Whether knocking boots with her latest conquest in the high school parking lot or parading through the hallways in killer hot pants, she injects fresh irreverence into the bad girl theme.
But after raising her hand in class and offending her teachers and peers one time too many, Danielle is forced into the remedial education programme.
To her great dismay, she’s paired with overweight outcast Clarke (Jeremy Dozier) for a parenting project, and plummets almost instantly on the social ladder.
Clarke is grappling with his own roster of issues, not least of which is his not-so-latent homosexuality, which his father will never accept.
All too familiar with her own feelings of sexual ostracism, Danielle and Clarke strike up an unlikely friendship.
When Danielle finds a clue as to the identity of her real father, the two hit the road in search of one dad while attempting to escape another, all the while learning more about who they are and the ultimate value of friendship. - Jane Schoettle - Toronto Internantional Film Festival
