17 And Life Doesn’t Wait is a compassionate and humorous documentary featuring three smart and sassy teenage girls in their final year of high school. It explores how the girls’ place in the world affects their attitudes, actions and goals as they dream about the future, explore their passions, anxieties and sexuality, and intimately share their lives.
“Reassuring to high school seniors, who may wonder if everyone else has it more figured out, and a useful prompt for pre-service teachers to remind them that under an “I’ve got this” attitude, teens still benefit from sensitive adult support.” – School Library Journal
