The cross section between New York's mean streets and its gentrified alcoves makes for potent social satire in Elizabeth Wood's tough and exhilarating debut. Equipped with platinum blonde hair and a winning smile, college girl Leah (Morgan Saylor) seeks out pleasure in any form. She has two weeks before fall semester, and in between getting high with her roommate and snorting lines with her boss, she finds time to hit it off with a handsome, young Puerto Rican drug dealer named Blue. Within days, the two are selling dime bags to her affluent white colleagues, collecting fast cash, and living the high life. But their euphoria comes to a grinding halt once Blue is arrested and Leah's left with a hefty amount of his coke. Does she sell it to save him or use it herself? (Sundance Film Festival)
