In the tradition of free-wheeling tributes to adolescence like Dazed & Confused, the Myth of the American Sleepover follows four young people (a cast of brilliant young newcomers in their feature film debuts) on the last night of summer; their final night of freedom before the new school year starts. The teenagers cross paths as they explore the suburban wonderland they inhabit in search of love and adventure chasing first kisses, elusive crushes, popularity and parties and discover the quiet moments that will resonate as the best of their youth. Writer/director David Robert Mitchell crafts a tender coming-of-age drama that's at times both heartwarming and truthful.
