The don't-know-what-to-do mom (Julie Bowen) and bewildered sister characters are also given due importance as they're significant to the progress that Vada makes each day. It's almost like Megan Park extensively studied how Gen Z-ers speak, organically incorporating dialogues into the script. Vada (Ortega), a tomboy with introverted inclinations, is perplexed at the way everything suddenly changes for her, and the film showcases her struggles (and occasional highs) poignantly. The screenplay works as a contemporary character study, going into the itsy bitsy details of a high-school teenager's life in the aftermath of the said pivotal incident. Megan Park's debut feature film is striking and centers around the survivors of a high-school shooting incident. It's a small but profoundly layered film, powered by a solid lead performance from Jenna Ortega. ![]() It'd been a while since a teen drama really got me pondering, but then I watched The Fallout.
