  • Singh plays Maya, a late‑twenties newcomer to the classroom who takes a sex‑education job to confront her own inexperience.
  • Sara Zandieh directs from a screenplay by Neel Patel, Lilly Singh, and Zandieh, with supporting turns from Sabrina Jalees, Stephanie Beatriz, Ana Gasteyer, and Trevor Salter.
  • Early critiques diverge: FandomWire praises the throwback raunch and recommends a big‑screen viewing, Film Festival Today gives 2/5 for predictability, and Collider calls it funny but slight.
  • Reviewers cite gross‑out set pieces and fourth‑wall narration among the creative swings, crediting Singh’s performance while flagging uneven execution and familiar story beats.
