Synopsis

Anna (Melonie Diaz) is a rather homely, low self-esteem human floormat. She works at a plastic surgeon’s office, and generally mopes through her day. One night when leaving work, she catches Sadie (Nicole Vicius) spray-painting all over the front of the plastic surgeon’s building. Instead of calling the cops, she and Sadie find common ground and Sadie recruits Anna into her group of radical feminists known as Clits in Action, or C(I)A. As her adventures in activism with the C(I)A move along, Anna finally begins to establish her own real identity, and becomes less of the floormat and more the stomping, steel-tipped boot. —FilmThreat
