A buoyant, music-driven teen romance that celebrates unlikely love across social divides with '80s style and sincerity.

Set to a new wave '80s soundtrack, Julie, a girl from the valley, meets Randy, a punk from the city. They are from different worlds and find love. Somehow they need to stay together in spite of her trendy, shallow friends.
