Foreign Exchange

2008 · 85 min

A breezy, silly teen sex comedy that coasts on easy laughs and mild romance without asking much of you.

Tagline
Senior year just got hotter!
Overview
Four high school friends plan to ride out their senior year taking easy classes, including a program for housing foreign exchange students and eventually all attending Ohio State. Hurdles befall each of the four: grades, higher aspirations, love. Is it the Foreign Exchange students that learn from their host or the hosts that do more of the learning?
