Plot Synopsis

Based on the book by Mary Pipher. Sisters Marie and Le Ann have always leaned on one another through life's challenges, but discover they need each other more than ever as they navigate the complexities of understanding and raising their teen daughters. Marie's 17-year-old daughter, Elizabeth, has the picture perfect life, with a seemingly equally wonderful boyfriend. Meanwhile, Le Ann is raising 16-year-old Kelli as a single parent and finds it difficult to relate to the pressures her daughter is facing with boys, friends and school. When Kelli starts to suspect Elizabeth maybe being abused by her boyfriend, no one will believe her. But when Elizabeth lands in the hospital, Kelli's surprising insights help Marie give the frightened teenager the courage to leave her violent relationship.
