Life-long friends and perpetual social outsiders Enid (Birch) and Rebecca (Johansson) take a non-traditional path after high school, avoiding college in favor of part-time jobs – a choice that affords them more opportunities to ridicule anyone or anything they encounter. But Enid's attitudes soften when she discovers a kindred spirit in thirty-something jazz-collecting nerd Seymour (Buscemi). It may not turn out be romance in the conventional sense (there's nothing conventional about either of them), but it's going to be interesting.
