Synopsis
The story of three roommates at a private school for girls, LOST AND DELIRIOUS centers on Mary (Mischa Barton), who is shy and lonely, having spun on a downward spiral ever since the death of her mother three years before. But when she arrives at prep school and meets her new roommates, Pauline (Piper Perabo) and Tory (Jessica Pare)--fun, happy girls--Mary begins to open up. But just as Mary begins to come out of her shell, she discovers that her roommates are lovers, and, not knowing how to talk about it, she bites her tongue and is left feeling more isolated and alone than ever before.

Critics' reviews
- "'Lost and Delirious' doesn't need metaphors for the power of strength and healing. All the passion and pain it needs glows ferociously in the eyes of its young women."
- "Boldly goes where Hollywood rarely treads: into the passionate, intense and complex world of girls at the point in their lives when self-discovery is tempered by enormous vulnerability."
- "Blessed with a lovely score and strong acting, but crippled by an awkward, mawkish script."
- "Nicely written as well as filmed."
- "Evokes the intimacies of teenage girls with unusual delicacy, and Perabo's performance is a geyser of emotion."
- "Piper Perabo is a revelation -- and Barton is maturing into a sensitive, subtle performer with a marvelously expressive face."
