Extended description

"Kid, you're too young, too punk, and too female to be in a real rock and roll band."

When an audition for a guitarist's position in an established group goes sour with one snide sentence, 16-year-old Reina Kawamura is determined to start her own punk rock band.

With her older brother's hand-me-down Strat in hand, her experiences witnessing the California punk scene a few years earlier, and her best friends at her side and on stage with her, the group starts off as a semi-serious lark. As time goes on, the experiences Reina goes through as a musician and a person in the ensuring months end up changing her life - on and off stage - for the better.
