Megan (Natasha Lyonne) considers herself a typical American girl. She excels in school and cheerleading, and she has a handsome football-playing boyfriend. So she's stunned when her parents decide she's gay and send her to True Directions, a boot camp meant to alter her sexual orientation. While there, Megan starts to develop feelings for a rebellious and unashamed teen lesbian, Graham (Clea DuVall). Rated R for … wait, actually we’re not sure why it’s rated R.
