Where do you go when you've gone too far?

A deeply introspective portrait of a talented young woman's descent into depression and self-destruction, grounded in the specific struggles of her generation.

When talented young writer Elizabeth Wurtzel earns a scholarship to Harvard, she sees it as her chance to escape the pressures of her working-class background and concentrate on her true talent. But what starts out so promising leads to self-destructive behavior and paralyzing depression that reflects an entire generation's struggle to navigate the effects of divorce, drugs, sex, and high expectations.
