Description: The 1950s in Ireland comes alive in the transformation of two country girls from Irish schoolchildren in a strict convent to teenagers needing to get away from their families. The teens escape to the big city, and the contrast to their past is handled with both pathos and humor. The two leads are excellently interpreted by (Maeve Germaine and Jill Doyle).~ Eleanor Mannikka, All Movie Guide
