Charlotte (Winona Ryder) is a teenage girl growing up in the 1960s, torn between her passion for a young man who works at the local church and her desire – despite being Jewish – to become a nun. Newly arrived in town, the tensions soon increase between Charlotte, her swimming-obsessed younger sister (Christina Ricci), and their man-eating mother (Cher) – a single parent who cannot come to grips with her family. Features the hit single ‘The Shoop Shoop Song (It's In His Kiss)’ as performed by Cher.
