Overview

Whit Stillman (Love & Friendship, The Last Days of Disco) takes a typically witty, bitter-sweet look at the lives of a quartet of girls who are determined to ring the changes at a depressingly grungy, hitherto boorish and male dominated East Coast college. As they put their plans into action, they also, inevitably, become involved with various members of the establishment’s masculine population, and find both their loyalty to one another and their very sanity coming under threat.
