Synopsis

New York news producer Amy thought she left her high-school experiences way back in the past, but at her high-school debate coach's request, she unwillingly returns to Louisiana. Their strained reunion brings back memories of her tumultuous senior year of high school. A series of flashbacks depicts young Amy on the highly-competitive national debate circuit as she and her debate partner Nick meet compatriots and competitors from top high school from all over the country--and the college coaches who control access to valuable scholarships.
