Synopsis: Though they live far apart, teens Gwen and Lise are bosom buddies whose loyalty to each other supersedes almost every other relationship in their lives. Gwen lives by the seaside with her fisherman father and housewife mother. Insouciant and good-natured, with blonde hair and Rubenesque charm, Gwen does the usual teenage things like hanging out with friends, sleeping on the beach and secretly having sex with her boyfriend, but most of all, she looks forward to letters from Lise. In contrast, Lise is a thin, intense redhead who has never known her father and whose favorite escape is gazing at her aquarium fish. When a dramatic change in her life causes great confusion, she takes off for the coast to see Gwen.
