A Girl Like Him (2024)

In a small, close-knit town, lifelong best friends Lena Grey and Justin Beckett have always been each other's world. But both have been holding a deep secret from the other. As another summer comes to an end, the burden of those secrets starts to unravel. Entering junior year, Lena feels an inner pull toward something truer than the life she's known and finally steps into a more authentic version of herself, while Justin struggles with feelings he's never admitted, not even to himself. As Stefanie Miles, a beautiful new student, arrives in school, something ignites in Lena and drives a wedge between the lifelong best friends. Watching Lena transform and bond with someone new stirs emotions in Justin he can't control, especially once teammate, Todd Zdinzki, begins to harass him relentlessly. Anger, jealousy, and confusion drive Justin toward a breaking point, escalating to a moment that challenges everything they thought they knew about love, friendship and loyalty. A Girl Like Him is a raw, unfiltered look at teenage love, the bonds of friendship, and the painful journey of self-discovery. It explores how embracing who you truly are can mean leaving behind the person you once were-and those who may want everything to remain the same.
