IN THEATERS DECEMBER 3. ON DIGITAL DECEMBER 24.
At Lowell High School, the top public high school in San Francisco, the seniors are stressed out. As they prepare for the emotionally draining college application process, students are keenly aware of the intense competition for the few open spots in their dream colleges. At Lowell-where cool kids are nerds, nearly everyone has an amazing talent, and most of the student body is Asian American-the things that usually make a person stand out can feel commonplace. With humor and heart, director Debbie Lum captures the reality of the American college application process and the intersection of class, race, and educational opportunity as young adults navigate a quintessential rite of passage.

    Shame on Debbie Lum to make such a movie reinforcing the Asian student stereotype. She betrayed the Asian community.

    Not stereotyping at all... education is number 1 priority to a majority of the Asians. It is the Asian culture.

    reinforcing? I think she was just documenting the reality of certain students. Documentaries don't push narratives, only highlight realities, and I think she did an awesome job at that.

    @@sammy8749 Selective documenting is reinforcing. For example, this video is just a combination of real clips: kzread.info/dash/bejne/eGGdp7tmh9TZc5M.html. But the message it delivers is women soccer players are silly and incompetent.
