I think this is going to be a really interesting film and I think people in my circles may find it relevant. It just screened at the Toronto Film Festival and I hope it makes its way to local theater's soon.
The synopsis: Trio of girls who get bullied at school for looking like they might be lesbians drink the sap of a mysterious plant and gain the power to transform into boys. Uses fantasy premise to explore the intersection between teen drama and gender identity.

That looks really fascinating, and makes me want to find the book, because I have just as little time for reading as I do for going to a movie... though it's easier to get a babysitter for a movie outing than for "I really want to read a new book!"
