A frenetic mockumentary comedy that mines cringe and satire from the perspective of an oblivious, narcissistic teenage queen bee navigating privilege and social hierarchy.

Ja'mie King, the self-promoting "queen bee" of Summer Heights High, returns from an exchange semester at that public school for her last three months at Hillford Girls Grammar, where she's the unchallenged diva among the school's most popular girls, as well as the school captain. Clothes, cars, boys, parties ... Ja'mie has it all, and her overriding goal is to win the Hillford Medal
