Synopsis

When Jessica, an impressionable freshman, joins the tuba section of the marching band at a major football university in Texas, she is forced to confront her identity as a non-Spanish speaking latina. She and her newfound family of ragtag tuba players, on the precipice of entering the “real world,” explore their perceived identities, created identities, and forced identities through the lens of the tuba section—the most identifiable group in the marching band.
