PEN15 brings audiences back to the days of the early 2000s. The show presents the awkward and sometimes hellish world of middle school in the United States through the lens of protagonists Maya Ishii-Peters and Anna Kone. Throughout the series, they meet other personalities at school and in their home lives.
