Summary

1. "AVALON follows Bran, a high school graduate in California who is raised by her 'common-law-stepfather' in a rowdy home following her mother's death. After graduating from high school, Bran stays in town and is introduced to Peter, a college student who is engaged, and the two begin an intense relationship revolving around philosophy, literature, and their attraction for one another. Encouraged by Peter, Bran begins writing scripts for their friend, Jay, who studies film at UCLA, and though her work is lauded, she doesn't receive the credit or acclaim she deserves, culminating in a confrontation at an LA party with Peter"--
