    The Cuts

    Eighteen-year-old Ryan leaves her small town to follow her dream at a prestigious acting conservatory, only to enter a cutthroat world of ambition, obsession, rivalry, sex, and self-discovery where reality and performance blur and she and her classmates are forced to decide how much of themselves they're willing to lose to become someone else.
