Puddle Cruiser

In the bustling corridors of Coburn University, college life hums with a mix of ambition, mischief, and the inevitable search for identity. At the heart of this world is Felix Bean, a charismatic yet slightly reckless student whose easy‑going charm masks a deeper yearning for recognition. Across the quad, Suzanne moves with a confident stride, balancing her studies with the responsibility of representing her peers in the campus courtroom—a role that gives her a unique blend of authority and vulnerability. Their paths intersect when a casual spark ignites, setting the stage for a competition that feels as much about personal pride as it is about affection.

Caught between admiration and the urge to prove himself, Felix discovers that Traci Shannon, Suzanne’s athletic boyfriend, looms large not only in her life but also on the rugby field. The prospect of a showdown transforms a simple romantic rivalry into a larger‑than‑life test of masculinity, where the clash of helmets and hearts becomes a metaphor for the characters’ inner conflicts. As the campus buzzes with whispers of upcoming matches, the looming contest promises to blur the lines between friendship, love, and the desire to be seen.

Surrounding the central trio are a ragtag group of friends—Matt and Grogan among them—who add a layer of chaotic camaraderie to the mix. Their antics and loyalty hint at a broader tapestry of youthful rebellion, where every prank and plan is tinted with both humor and a hint of earnestness. The film’s tone wavers between slapstick comedy and earnest coming‑of‑age moments, inviting viewers to wonder how far one will go to win affection and how much of oneself is truly at stake when pride and love collide.
