We saw this movie on Netflix streaming. It apparently was only released at various film festivals in 2014 and 2015, then went to online, never had a normal theatrical release.
The premise is simple. Ryan Malgarini (about 21) is Brian Kieslowski, about to go off to start college at Caltech as a freshman. He is a good kid and good student, he will major in Physics (Yay Einstein!). His mother, who happens to be dying from cancer, gives him the talk, using her checklist, and we see that Brian is uncomfortable listening to his mother talk about sex.
He goes off to college and quickly finds himself at an evening party, and soon catches the eye of pretty Haley Lu Richardson (about 19, a really good young actress) as Leslie Mallard. She is quickly getting drunk on too much beer but finds Brian a nice boy to become friends with. She leans over to whisper in his ear then shouts, "I'm a virgin" as I suppose the scriptwriter thinks drunk college kids behave. Nonetheless it sets up what will be the core story here.
Brian escorts Leslie home to her apartment, she asks him to stay, and the next morning he leaves with a big smile. Six weeks later we see Leslie consulting with a doctor and he tells her a high level of a certain hormone indicates she might be pregnant with twins.
The rest of the story is about Leslie, Brian, and their respective parents working out what is best to do. Leslie has strong Christian beliefs, and also feels an attachment to her unborn babies so doesn't want an abortion. Brian doesn't really want to become a dad as a teenager but he also wants to keep Leslie happy. Leslie's dad, a writer, wants her to abort the babies and threatens to cut off her college funding if she doesn't.
The movie is alternately serious and funny, the two leads are very well cast.
SPOILERS: Leslie's dad manipulates her into following him, in Brain's car, to the abortion clinic. But as they ride Brian realizes she really doesn't want to do that so when dad turns into the clinic he keeps driving, they go back to Pasadena, dad disowns Leslie, Brian goes on a rebellious romp and not contacting Leslie for months, but at the time of delivery they all get together, they have a boy and a girl, their future is unwritten.
