Canadian documentary filmmakers Janis Lundman and Adrienne Mitchell, over the course of a year, gathered footage of five very different 16-year-old girls, who each offered her own views on a range of topics relevant to adolescents. Collecting the girls' most intimate viewpoints on relationships, substance abuse, their families and their aspirations, Lundman and Mitchell offer a poignant look at the hopes and fears of young women at the brink of adulthood.
