I feel mad, because I had no idea one guy with a gun could fuck up my life so hard in six minutes.

Then I think I should be grateful to be alive.

I feel like, I don't know, maybe there's some weird fucked up reason why I made it and other people didn't.

Um, but then when you sit back and you think about it, you realize, "No! There isn't. There's no fucking reason."

High schooler Vada navigates the emotional fallout she experiences in the wake of a school tragedy. Relationships with her family, friends and view of the world are forever altered.

The Fallout

breakout role for Ortega

If you are determined to do a film on the aftermath of an active-shooter incident, one that happens almost right after the credits roll, you could worse than this. Ortega steals every scene and carries the movie. An amazing performance.

Bolstered by new friendships forged under sudden and tragic circumstances, high schooler Vada begins to reinvent herself, while re-evaluating her relationships with her family, friends and her view of the world. Moving away from her comfortable family routine, she starts taking chances with a series of quicksilver decisions that test her own boundaries and push her in new directions. As she spends more time with Mia, they grow closer, and Vada slowly redefines herself through their shared experiences, leading her further away from that day and closer to living her life in the now.
