Synopsis

Hipsters become lab mice in this how-to manual about how young Los Angelenos pump and primp themselves up every weekend to hit both the clubs and the sheets. (Here's a hint: booze and coke are key.) Modeled after retro educational films, but starring a zoo of punkers, wiggers and princesses, this chirpy, if cynical romp offers up sassy advice on chicks, dudes, drugs, DUIs and, most crucially, the charm skills guaranteed to work on the bouncer at Star Shoes.
