This looks like a really fun documentary!! Will definitely check it out.

My prom was pretty great to be honest. We partied in a field for the whole night after prom and I remember at the time thinking how cool it was that all the cliques and pretentiousness from high seemed just seemed to be dropped and everyone just enjoyed each other’s company.

At my [public school] prom, the school administrators stopped a group of straight girls dancing together; the were told it came across as gay.

We didn't have prom in my country and I am not sure if I am relieved or disappointed

Prom was never a big deal at my school, BUT my senior homecoming was LEGIT. I was never super cool, but was always friends with everyone

This looks good!

Prom was boring, but the adventures after were fun. I went with my best friend and we got bored after an hour, so we left and drove around downtown. We almost went to a club, but a drunk guy was pissing in front of the bushes near where we parked and I chickened out lmao. Then we went to a sex shop down the street, which was my first visit to one. THEN we went to Waffle House where lots of kids from prom were already hanging out at and it took half an hour just for us to get our drinks. Our waitress was not having it that night.
