Teenager Cara-Ethyl (Kylie Sparks) is having a tough go of it, in between dealing with her ballooning weight and the fact that her mom (Julie Hagerty) recently went blind after being in a car accident. Ashamed about her social status and dreading the prospect of turning 18, Cara-Ethyl winds up having a life-altering night with an older pizza delivery guy (Ethan Embry) who offers to let her come with him on his rounds after he brings her birthday dinner to her party, where no one showed up.

Pizza will never be the Lou Malnati's deep dish of the independent film world, but its gentle pacing...makes this gem as comforting as mall pizza on a hungry day.
