Spoilers ahead
Goshen, Indiana is a quiet, pastoral town that often feels small and insular, offering little to the restless energy of its teenagers. High school seniors Sarah, Anna Kendrick and Jillian, Tania Raymonde, have been best friends for so long that they can hardly remember when their bond began, yet their paths are clearly drawing them toward different futures. Growing up in Goshen, the two couldn’t be more different: Sarah is a standout student and athlete, while Jillian carries the weight of a rough home life and embraces mischief as a way to cope.
