Plot

Filmed as a pseudo-documentary, the film follows 17-year-old John Travis and 15-year-old Kim in the last few months of her pregnancy. The documentary filmmakers interview the couple as well as their friends and family about their perspectives on the matter. John is interested in adoption but Kim is more interested in keeping her child.
