"Eleanor & Park" er historien om den 16-årige Eleanor, der i 80'erne flytter til en ny by og føler sig meget alene. Hendes tøj matcher ikke, hendes røde hår er vildt og rodet, og hendes kaotiske hjemmeliv får hende til at stikke meget ud i forhold til alle de andre unge i byen. Alting ændrer sig dog den dag hun ved et tilfælde sætter sig ved siden af Park i bussen. Han er stille, forsigtig og enormt sej i Eleanors øjne. Park har regnet ud, at den smarteste måde at overleve sin skoletid på, er ved at flyve under radaren. Langsomt, gennem sene telefonsamtaler og en voksende stak kassettebånd, bliver Eleanor og Park forelskede. "Eleanor & Park" er en sjov, trist og overraskende fortælling om den første forelskelse - og et fantastisk nostalgitrip.
