After coming out to her conservative parents, seventeen-year-old Twinkie takes off on a road trip to meet her online crush with the help of her nerdy best friend, Egghead. As they make their way across the country, Egghead wrestles with his unrequited feelings for Twinkie, while Twinkie learns to embrace her identity as a gay mixed Asian woman.
Told in a series of flashbacks and peppered with vibrant 2D animation, EGGHEAD & TWINKIE is a stylized, whip smart, coming-of-age comedy about the joys and pains of coming out of the closet.
