At the end of their high school career, the two girls realize that they have yet to reach one goal: getting a boyfriend. They soon embark on a journey to snag a man by prom.
Portman has recently stepped up her producing role: she and partner Annette Savitch have two other movies (Love and Other Impossible Pursuits and Hesher) in production which both star the actress.
Drew Barrymore's production company Flower Films has been widely successful since their high school romantic comedy Never Been Kissed. Hopefully Portman will have similar luck!
