(4) YA Eighth-grader Leon makes a sex-ed video to fulfill his gifted class assignment. His project, which takes cinematic inspiration from Fellini and the avant garde, gets him suspended. The story gains momentum once Leon starts working on the movie. But the ending--the film becomes an underground hit and Leon's teacher nemesis leaves the school--is rushed and unrealistic.
