In the late 1980s, 16-year-old Billie Joe Armstrong lives in Pinole, California, dreaming of rock stardom with his best friend, Mike. His world shifts dramatically when a new family moves in next door, introducing him to Raven, a wild 16-year-old girl with a reckless lifestyle that mirrors his own. Raven is the embodiment of rebellion-she smokes pot, throws parties every weekend, and escapes the confines of her strict home life through drugs and alcohol, searching for a way to cope with feelings of isolation.
As Billie and Raven's paths collide, they find solace in their shared passion for music and a connection that transcends the chaos surrounding them. Billie becomes increasingly drawn to Raven's intensity, navigating the complexities of their relationship while also feeling a sense of responsibility for her younger sister, Phoenix, who is caught in the crossfire of their tumultuous lives.
As Raven's lifestyle spirals further out of control, Billie grapples with the weight of their choices, questioning how far he's willing to go for the girl who feels like a kindred spirit. In a world where music is both a refuge and a battleground, Billie must navigate the line between friendship and the fear of losing the ones he cares about.
"She" is a story of rebellion, friendship, and the raw, unfiltered essence of teenage angst, exploring how love and music can provide an escape while also forcing us to confront the realities of our choices.
