Both the young girl and boy are best friends and form a special bond because they come from family situations that were extremely hard to deal with. The young girl in the movie named Vada, has a difficult time relating to her father and constantly blames herself for the death of her mother because she died while giving birth. However, her awkward moments do not just end there. Vada is the subject of constant ridicule at school by other young girls and to make matters worse, she is opposed to her fathers latest romance.

Sennet, especially since he is also an unpopular kid in school himself. The two bond to create an amazing friendship. However, tragedy strikes the friends that will forever change their lives. Watch the movie to find out what that dramatic event turns out to be!
