In the late 1970s, Santa Barbara, California, serves as an invigorating backdrop for a story centered around Dorothea Fields, a strong-willed single mother in her mid-50s who fiercely protects and nurtures her teenage son, Jamie. As cultural shifts and youthful rebellion reshape the social landscape, Dorothea forms an unexpected alliance with two younger women to navigate the challenges of adolescent upbringing.Abbie, a spirited punk artist, brings a refreshing bohemian energy into the Fields' home as a live-in boarder, while Julie, a sharp and provocative teenager from next door, lends her savvy perspective to the mix. Together, these three diverse women forge an unconventional partnership that transcends generational divides, offering support and guidance in their joint journey of nurturing and guiding Jamie through the tumultuous adolescent years of self-discovery, identity formation, and coming to terms with a rapidly evolving world.
