Dude follows the lives of four best friends, Lily, Chloe, Amelia, and Rebecca, who are about to graduate from high school. They navigate loss and major life changes during the last two weeks of school while dealing with their own individual struggles.
Lily is coping with the loss of her father, who passed away a year ago. She turns to drugs and alcohol to numb her pain. Chloe, who is the most organized and driven of the group, finds out that she was rejected from her dream college and doesn't know what to do next.
Amelia, the overachiever, is struggling with the pressure her parents put on her to succeed. Shattered and unable to cope, she grapples with the implications of her family's expectations and a terrible tragedy in which she suffers the loss of her boyfriend.
Meanwhile, Rebecca, a free spirit who always defies the norm, questions her decision to go to college and wonders if she wants to break away from her hometown and experience the world. These four friends come to support each other as they sort through their conflicts and face the challenges that lie ahead.
Dude explores the complexities of friendship, grief, and the decisions that change our lives forever. With a comical, yet poignant perspective, the film gives an authentic and heartfelt portrait of the bond between these young women.
