Educated
Directed by Georgia Lee
A seemingly normal day at school turns into a surreal pursuit when 15-year-old Alice walks in on her best friend Wendy hanging herself in the girls' bathroom. Alice and Wendy are diligent, overachieving students in school and polite, well-behaved daughters in their Chinese-American community. When Alice inadvertently walks in on Wendy's aborted suicide attempt, she embarks on a journey to find out why. As she retraces Wendy's path, she uncovers a fantastical and deadly world of familial obligation, competitive pressure, and societal expectation. But just whose reality is it? And can she prevent the tragedy from happening again?
