SWALLOW GRASS SNAKES

Devin, more infamously know as ‘Study Girl’, has become a viral sensation after web-camming a sex act in her university’s study center. After being kicked out of school and ostracized by her friends and family, Devin hopes to repair an important relationship with her younger sister, Alexa, by planning a special night out. Devin chooses an out of the way movie theater to avoid being recognized, but when the concession boy turns out to be a over-eager fan, Devin must go beyond the pale to protect her relationship with Alexa.
