It is written and created by Mae Martin, who also stars in the main role - a trans man Alex, who returns to his pregnant partner Laura's home town of Tall Pines.
The eight-episode series, set in 2003, explores themes of LGBTQIA+, self-acceptance, coming-of-age, cult ideology and mind control in a small town.
We soon learn that there is a prison-like institution in the town for troubled teens called Tally Pines Academy.
