Eleven year-old Emily is caught in-between friends; Brooke and her giggling group, and Rebecca, whose membership in the inner circle hangs by a thin thread. When Emily is challenged with a jar of red paint with which to play the best trick on Rebecca ever, Emily is faced with the prospect of betraying her new friend and is caught between something greater: autonomy or belonging.
