Synopsis:Leicester, 1972. T Rex are chewing up the charts, and Jack, a mixed-race teenager with a lot more than schoolwork on her mind, has a hectic month of growing up to do. This film depicts Jack's coming-of-age: she shines in academia and art class as well as on the track, and most importantly she's got her eye on a rather handsome classmate Steven Green.
