5.9/10
The mating rituals of two teenage surf chicks from the southern suburbs of Sydney.

The girls have to follow lots of strange customs, e.g. do not eat or go to the bathroom when a boy is around. Ugly girls have two choices - being bitches and hate boys, or being generally cheap and looked down upon by everyone.
