In small-town Indiana, high school student Emma Nolan (Jo Ellen Pellman) is experiencing a very different kind of heartbreak. Despite the support of the high school principal (Keegan-Michael Key), the PTA head (Kerry Washington) bans her from attending the prom with her girlfriend, Alyssa (Ariana DeBose).
