Eighth Grade
What's it about?
Thirteen-year-old Kayla endures the tidal wave of suburban adolescence as she makes her way through the last week of middle school — before she begins high school.
Why do we love it?
In an incredible feature debut, Bo Burnham has created one of the most real and authentic coming-of-age stories in years. The nervousness of every character and the use of Social Media platforms helps to cement it in the awkward reality of growing up.
