'프린세스 시드'는 시카고에 사는 친척이자 저명한 소설가인 미란다와 함께 여름을 보내는 16살짜리 운동선수, 시드 러플린을 따라간다. 우울증에 걸린 채 홀로 아이를 키운 아버지에게서 벗어나는 것이 마냥 즐거운 시드는 한 이웃 소녀에게 반한다. 미란다와 시드는 서로의 생각과 믿음에 의문을 제기하며, 함께 ‘성(Sex)과 영(Spirituality)의 세계’를 탐구하기 시작한다.
A vivid, dynamic Southern coming-of-age drama, takes place in the transitional space between high school and college, when life seems to be all questions and no answers, and the future is scarily wide open. Set in and around a Charleston, SC Baptist church, weaving through this ensemble piece are three main characters - Brea, an introspective pastor's daughter experiencing debilitating doubt, the hyperactive Laura, Brea's best friend and a devout believer, and Tim, the open-hearted son of a single father, confronting his homosexuality for the first time. Tensions and buried feelings abound, as colleges are chosen and adults behave badly, as Brea, Laura and Tim attempt to hang onto what they have, all the while yearning to break free.
