Strangers with Candy (1999)

In the deliciously absurd universe of Strangers with Candy, we follow the unconventional journey of Jerri Blank, a 46-year-old self-confessed "boozer, user, and loser." Having squandered her youth on vices, Jerri decides to hit the reset button on her life and bravely returns to the lion's den of adolescence - high school. As a freshman amongst students a third of her age, Jerri grapples with the challenge of blending in and mastering the nuances of teenage coolness. But the ghosts of her reckless past refuse to fade away, her moral compass is virtually non-existent, and her attempts to reconnect with her peculiar family and navigate her interactions with befuddled schoolmates oscillate between hilarious and heartbreaking. In this farcical realm, morality isn’t just blurred but lost in the shuffle, and a twisted kind of learning takes place. Lessons on how to be less human are served up with a side of biting humor, making Strangers with Candy an irresistible blend of dark comedy and social satire. Dive into this riotous spectacle and accompany Jerri on her quest for redemption - or at least, for a semblance of normalcy.
