Acting Out

Aroview: Girl-centric Australian 'indie' in which a high-schooler grapples with various issues of intimacy and relationships.

Suspended from school for profane outbursts, she is forced to deal with a self-absorbed mother who is coming to terms with a separation while navigating the awkwardness of her adolescence. Manages to turn its no budget trappings to reasonable advantage, even if it inevitably veers toward soap opera.
