Aspiring debater Ellie, who's Jewish, attends the Christian Society Speech and Performing Arts Camp determined to win a scholarship to a prestigious high school. To her family's chagrin, she hides her Judaism when she learns that the scholarship's benefactor is anti-Semitic. The jokey title and cover belie the substantial, honest portrayal of a teen experiencing religious intolerance for the first time.
