Looking for Alibrandi

Nunca hubo un hombre en la vida de Josephine Alibrandi (Pia Miranda). En su último año en el instituto, hay tres. El padre de Josephine que la dejó cuando su madre era una adolescente embarazada, vuelve a la ciudad cada vez más implicado en la vida de su hija. John Barton (Matthew Newton), pulido, rico y destinado al colegio de abogados, está románticamente interesado en Josephine. Y también está Jacob Coote (Kick Gurry), un chico de clase obrera, de buen ver, que emociona a Josephine de una forma que ella nunca pensó posible. Enmarcada en el contexto de Sydney, Australia, y en una vibrante comunidad italoaustraliana, esta película con gran carga emocional presenta la lucha de una heroína batalladora para controlar las presiones del instituto, familia y amigos, mientras al mismo tiempo se conoce a sí misma.
