Tagline
This is a nice video. It won't offend anyone. You can bring it home to dinner at your parents. If only all videos were this nice.
Overview
Nice is a cheeky exploration of lesbian chic, otherwise known as the commodification of lesbian identity. A Kraft Dinner eating punker dyke gets tired of living in the margins and decides to get a lifestyle with a vengeance. Her journey to niceness features a hellish shopping spree and convincing makeover.
