Mid-1990s New York. Patty, Angela, Emma and Nikki are high school seniors and best friends preparing for life after graduation. Their dreams for the future are very different – Angela wants to be a poet, Emma and Nikki are going to college, and Patty is a young mother looking for stability in her child’s life, but the four bright, young women are unwaveringly loyal to each other in a way that only teenagers can be. Then their lives are completely turned upside down when Nikki unexpectedly commits suicide after being sexually assaulted. Grieving, angry and forced to return to their everyday lives without satisfying their feelings, the girls must come to a newfound understanding of the patriarchal world they live in.
