17-year-old Lisa feels certain that she inadvertently played a role in causing a traffic accident that claimed a woman's life.

Torn apart with frustration, she begins emotionally brutalizing her family, her friends, her teachers, and, most of all, herself. She has been confronted quite unexpectedly with a basic truth: that her youthful ideals are on a collision course with the realities and compromises of the adult world.
