Synopsis

Thirteen year-old Kayla endures the tidal wave of contemporary suburban adolescence as she makes her way through the last week of middle school--- the end of her thus far disastrous eighth grade year--- before she begins high school. Writer/director Burnham explained in an interview: "I wanted to talk about anxiety and what it feels like to be alive right now, and what it is to be unsure and nervous. That felt more like middle school than high school to me. I think the country and the culture is going through an eighth-grade moment right now".

"Eighth Grade" was nominated for four Independent Spirit Awards and won one for Best Screenplay and a Golden Globe nomination for actress Elsie Fisher. "Gucci!"

Bo Burnham---USA---2018---94 mins.
