- Synopsis:
- Charlotte (Ryder) is an adolescent girl torn between her blossoming passions for a handsome caretaker (Michael Schoeffling)... and her desire to be a nun (a tough calling for a girl who's Jewish). Complicating her already precarious teen angst is a little sister (Ricci), a determined would-be swimmer she affectionately calls 'fishhead', and their mother (Cher), a non-traditional, sexy, flamboyant woman who relocates them to a new town every time she causes a hint of scandal... which is often. But even as their personal styles clash, these three incredibly different individuals begin to see that nothing... not even a life-threatening tragedy... can tear apart the bonds of family.
