Vivian lebt in Texas und hat die Nase voll. Von den blöden Kommentaren der Jungs während des Unterrichts. Von den Lehrern, die nichts dagegen unternehmen. Von der absurden Kleiderordnung, die nur für Mädchen zu gelten scheint. Aber vor allem hat Vivian es satt, den Mund zu halten. Als sie einen alten Flyer ihrer Mutter, ein ehemaliges Punkrock-Riot-Grrrl, findet, beschließt sie, etwas gegen die Ungerechtigkeit zu tun. Heimlich gestaltet sie ihren eigenen Flyer, »Moxie«, und verteilt ihn an der Schule. Die Mädchen sind begeistert und tragen Vivians Botschaft weiter. Und auch Seth, der neue Junge an der Schule, ist schwer beeindruckt. Doch schon bald begreift Vivian, dass sie damit eine Revolution angestoßen hat, die ihre Leben ganz schön ins Wanken bringt.
