How to Lose a Popularity Contest
How to Lose a Popularity Contest is a high-school romantic comedy about two students who should be rivals. One is a rebellious type, the other a perfectionist overachiever, and the race for student body president pushes them into an unlikely alliance. Campaigning together, they start noticing feelings that were not part of the plan, and the title hints that winning the vote may not be the point by the end.
Sara Waisglass plays Ellie Pearse and Chase Hudson plays Nate Reed, the mismatched pair at the centre. Lillian Doucet-Roche appears as Quinn, Graham Verchere as Rowan Cross, Ecstasia Sanders as Gloria Everdeen and Kyra Leroux as Aja Fox. Stephen S. Campanelli, whose earlier films include Momentum and Grand Isle, directs. It runs 1h 43m; no age rating is listed.
IMDb voters have given it 5.5 from 499 votes, and there is no Kinopoisk rating on record yet.
