In a god-fearing small town in 1960s Oklahoma, bespectacled and reclusive teen Iris endures the booze-induced antics of her mother and daily doses of bullying from her classmates. She finds solace in Maggie, the charismatic and enigmatic new girl at school, who hones in on Iris’s untapped potential and coaxes her out of her shell. When Maggie’s mysterious past can no longer be suppressed, the tiny community is thrown into a state of panic, leaving Maggie to take potentially drastic measures and inciting Iris to stand up for her friend and herself.

It felt to me like a dramatic romance about an ugly duckling that eventually found happiness, but presented in a significantly more intelligent way than is usual for such films. Perhaps the setting of the story in the 1960s contributed a little to this. But the parallel with the present time is unquestionable. I would only have a reservation about the fact that the pushed-aside girl didn't seem particularly affected by the sudden disappearance of her best friend. That probably wouldn't actually happen.
