Generation Wrecks (2021)
This teen coming-of-age comedy is set in 1994. The story follows two 11th graders, Stacy Snyder (Bridget McGarry) and Liz Castillo-Campbell (Victoria Leigh) who were best friends until the 7th grade when a mysterious event drove them apart. Stacy joined the popular crowd and Liz, who was outed publicly, fell in with the freaks and goths. After years of antagonizing each other, Stacy is moved to repair the friendship after Liz's little brother accidentally drowns. Stacy invites Liz to join her for a weekend getaway at her vacation home in the Poconos where they used to go when they were friends, but Liz insists she brings her own misfit group of friends with the intent to retaliate for years of misery caused by Stacy. Chaperoned by Stacy's older brother and his bubbly girlfriend, the eight high school Gen-Xers are confronted by the future, adulthood, and their own personal issues. They realize they all feel alienated and lost, and that friendship can be mended in the woods with a lot of music, games, and a little bit of love and weed.
