## Synopsis (in-house rewrite)

Future-self TikTok delivered by a crying teen keeps three friends from imploding and softens the new girl’s edge, all before the next lunch bell. The class learns closure the hard way. 2015 slacker-dramedy with the heft of a single volleyball hit.

**Mood tags**: foreign-gem, bittersweet, tender
