LEGOLAND
Penny and Ezra Lamb have been home-schooled on a hippie colony their whole lives - and they’re dying to get out. After a failed attempt at connection in a Walmart, the commune is busted, and the siblings - each seething with repression - are enrolled in a Catholic private school where they are instant social outcasts. Penny is quickly ostracized as a "lesbo,” meanwhile Ezra is fixated on German nihilism and reselling his Ritalin and Dexedrine prescriptions. After heartthrob Johnny Moon rebrands himself as a misogynistic rapper, the siblings run away from school on a bus tour across the continent - financed by selling their prescriptions - to bring back the "real" pop star. Irreverently dark and bursting with originality, Legoland’s Lamb siblings are prying for connection any way they can get it.
