Storyline

A 15-year-old girl's transformation from conservative Southern Baptist to liberal Christian and ardent feminist parallels her fight for sex education and gay rights in Lubbock, Texas.



Short Review

This would have been a stronger work had the filmmakers more fully explored how Knox arrived at her convictions... Still, it's pretty eye-opening, and it's hard not to be awed by her determination and resilience.
