Storyline

Megan Stewart, 14, and her best friend Amy Herman, 13, though opposites in personality, are best friends. Megan carries the front of being the most popular girl in school, but this masks a lifestyle of hard partying, drugs, alcohol and indiscriminate sex. Amy, unpopular and socially awkward, clings to her relationship with Megan as a lifeline to social acceptance. Together, these two young girls forge a deep friendship based on their mutual needs. The two girls regularly communicate by web chat cameras or cell phone, and even meet boys online. As Megan seeks friends who are different from her usual posse of hanger-ons, she is introduced by a friend online to a 17 year-old boy named Josh in a chat room. Megan and Josh bond quickly, leaving Amy feeling a bit left out. One day, Megan goes to meet Josh in person, and she is never seen again. Amy launches into a concentrated effort to find her friend. As the media swirls around the story of Megan's disappearance, Amy discovers the ... Written by Michael Goi

Trivia

Throughout the film Megan, as well as Amy are seen video calling eachother. There is one scene where Amy appears to make video calls on her cell phone whilst outside. The viewer gets to see the calls from the recipients perspective and the quality of the picture remains high enough to look more than fine on most of today's wide-screen HD television sets. However, in a later scene, Amy's cell phone model is revealed to be a Motorola V3 Razr. It should be noted that these primitive early generation handsets only captured video in 4:3 ratio, and at a much lower quality then what we see in the movies "found footage". See more »

Goofs

After Megan makes the date with Josh to get ice cream, she gets on a video chat with Amy. Just before Amy's video feed pops up, Michael Goi can be heard calling, "Action." See more »

OK...an awful example of what not to do in a movie... a simple history but with no artistic values or goodies to watch, with no other intention than to shocking our system without reasons...unless watchable reasons. some people with real mental problems do a film, so what? almost any Adam Sandler movie is the same but this contains gratuity mental violence.... With some The Blair Witch Project-style, this movie is not really a movie, is a visual palimpsest with nothing to offer.... really impossible to watch, obviously not for minors but also not for anyone who enjoy watch real cinema.... Avoid if possible....
