Description

For seniors in Pahokee, a small, mainly African-American industrial town on Florida’s Lake Okeechoboee, the Monday after prom is ‘Skip Day.’ Dozens of the students, miss their lessons, driving 60 miles to hang out and ponder theirfutures on the windy dunes of the Atlantic shoreline. The film intimately observes the shared joys of communal activity and extravagant display which bind these boisterous teenagers in their rites of passage towards an uncertain adulthood.
