Surviving 7th Grade
| USA | 7 MINUTES | English
Seventh-graders Kim and Dara are best friends. One day, while hanging out at a local playground, their classmate Marc shows up and, in front of all of his friends, asks Kim a question that leaves her speechless. The two girls quickly retreat to their hideout in Dara's basement, where a 6-year-old DJ, a 20-year-old stereo, a booty-shaking beat, and some fierce moves remind them that everything is going to be okay.
