ABOUT THE FILM
Ivy League-bound Veronica never thought she’d want to fail a test – that is, until she finds herself clutching a piece of plastic with a giant plus sign glaring back at her. Adapted from the novel of the same name, Unpregnant follows the 17-year-old as she makes a never-taken-lightly decision that faces one major catch: the closest clinic that’ll serve her is 1,000 miles away. With conservative parents, an incompetent boyfriend, and no car, Veronica turns to the only person who won’t judge: her ex-BFF and legendary misfit Bailey (Barbie Ferreira). As they hop in a ’77 Pontiac Firebird and hit the road, what could go wrong? Besides dodging cops and crazy ex-boyfriends, hopping trains, and navigating the unresolved betrayal of a broken best friendship, of course.
