Torn Jeans

Synopsis:
Jason's shadow comes alive one morning to persuade him to write a poem for Michelle, the new girl in school. She's just broken up with Paul, the prat, because he French-kissed Tina at a party. Mike, Jason's disaster-prone best mate, is also in love with Michelle and wants to ask her out at the next school disco. Paul, who feels he's misunderstood, wants Michelle back and will use force to repel her suitors. 'Torn Jeans' takes an honest yet zany look at the romantic aspirations of a few teenagers, preparing for a Saturday night school disco.
