Going to college is a rite of passage for many American high school students, but the process can be overwhelming: college fairs, tours, SATs, applications. And then there's the personal essay. How do seventeen-year olds define themselves in 500 words or less, to total strangers when they’re only beginning to discover who they really are? Filmmaker Molly Fowler takes audiences on a journey with four very different young people as they spend their last year at home with their families trying to figure out who they are and who they want to be.
