Synopsis
Three childhood girlfriends from rural Ireland are reunited in college, ready to experience life to the fullest. Eve, Nan and Benny meet handsome young men and instantly fall in love. Benny, a modest, self-conscious dreamer, sets her sights on Jack, the brightest and best-looking boy on campus, eventually capturing his attention with her wit and adventurous spirit. Benny has always relied on the people she loves--and the people who love her--in her circle of friends, but in matters of the heart she is sure to find the greatest joy of all.
