Lovely Rita

Synopsis

Rita is an unruly outsider, she is indifferent to her classmates, her teachers find her rude, and her parents lock her in as punishment. Her clumsy sexual awakening leads her to intimacy with a schoolboy, too young, and a bus driver, too old. These encounters isolate her even more, until one day Rita steps out of bounds.
