Synopsis

In a typical day at swim practice our protagonist is bombarded by the whistling of her eccentric coach, the burden of God’s watchful eye, the majesty of the older swimmers, and naughty recordings on her teammate’s cellphone. Not to mention the horror of getting her period. Crushes, tampons, and granola bars are the only things getting her through. All the while, our protagonist comes to understand herself and her body.
