This film follows four years in the lives of three teenage girls caught up in San Francisco's Juvenile Justice System."--title screens. This documentary tells the compelling stories of Stephanie, Shangra, and Sheila, opening a window onto the juvenile justice system, exposing its failure to break the cycle of poverty, crime, and incarceration that consumes vulnerable young women.
