Definitely Something

Two high school sweethearts reunite in their 30s for an Emo Night in Brooklyn, only to have their evening derailed by lingering passion and hidden scars. Punctuated by spiked bracelets and a soundtrack featuring emo icons SAY ANYTHING and THURSDAY, Definitely Something is a millennial's homage to both the early 2000s and the continued struggle of wearing your heart on your sleeve.
