Lettie and Trevor are best friends in tenth grade, somewhere in Vermont. Lettie is a White girl who wears a red nose. Trevor is Black and gay; he wears theatrical costumes to school. They're making a movie. They drink a lot of coffee. RED NOSE GIRL is Lettie's story about how their Advanced Placement U.S. History research project led them to confront the For-Profit Prison system in Vermont and, actually, everywhere. For Lettie, it's personal. For Trevor, it's way more than that.

Maybe. In the U.S. a high school English teacher reads about it and decides to do a copycat crime. Why? To rescue the National Endowment for the Arts, of course. True story? Maybe.
