Synopsis: Scruples is a spectacularly blasphemous comedy following 4 teenage girls at a religious summer camp as they plan to steal back items that were confiscated from them. In the pursuit of a promise ring, a steamy love letter and a heretical heirloom the four ‘altar-girls’ at Camp Mercy will enact a heist of biblical proportions. Audiences can expect a healthy dose of sacrilege, teenage hijinks, and an exploration of women’s relationships with organized religion and personal belief.
Warning: Discusses and displays scenes with religious themes, beliefs and practices (Christian Evangelism.) Uses the word rape (in the context of conservative religious beliefs around tampons.) Explicit sexual content discussed and general lewdness displayed.
