| Ellie
arrives at art school as a lonely, shy freshman. But she’s about
to leave the mousy Ellie behind in favor of brave Ellie who dirty dances
with the devil at a costume party. Ok, he’s really not the devil.
Well, maybe just a little bit, but that’s a complicated story. Then
there’s her crazy art teacher who makes them draw squares and circles.
Is THIS what Ellie came to school to learn how to do? Over time,
Ellie learns that her dark and moody art actually has a lighter side and
that sometimes a devil in disguise is just a devil after all. (Beth
