"Magellan" is a coming-of-age tale about the perils of adolescence, set against the stark industrial backdrop of old-downtown Atlanta. Our hero, Magellan, is a scrawny compulsive liar and the outcast of 7th grade. He lives with his moody father in an old factory smokestack that's been renovated to loft space and painted a garish aquamarine. Rather than get ridiculed when the bus drops him off at this monstrosity, Magellan chooses to walk to and from middle school everyday. Tiana, a beautiful and popular African-American girl in the same grade, shares his walking route. Though Tiana would never be caught dead hanging out with Magellan at school, they develop an unlikely friendship during their daily commute together. Completely infatuated with her, Magellan eventually works up the foolhardy courage to ask her to the upcoming Spring Dance....
