The movie follows the story of two teenage girls, Angel and Tony, who try to escape their mundane small town life by running away to Hollywood. Angel (Shannen Doherty) is a rebellious teenager who is frustrated with her mundane life. She has long dreamed of escaping her small town and becoming a star in Hollywood. Tony (Holly Marie Combs), her best friend, is a more grounded and practical teenager, but she too is tired of her life and wants to break free from the monotony.

Together, the two girls make a plan to run away to Hollywood and start a new life. But their plan hits a snag when they are caught robbing a store and end up getting sentenced to jail. While serving out their sentence, the two girls become friends with the tough-but-kindhearted Matron (Diane Ladd), who tries to help them see the error of their ways.

But when Angel and Tony hear about a jailbreak being planned by some of the other female prisoners, they decide to join in on the fun. What follows is a wild and crazy adventure as the group of girls tries to escape the clutches of the law and find a better life.

Shannen Doherty delivers a strong performance as Angel, the rebellious teenager who is determined to live life on her own terms. Holly Marie Combs, known for her role in Charmed, plays Tony, the more level-headed of the two friends.

The film's supporting cast is also noteworthy, particularly Diane Ladd as Matron. Ladd brings a tenderness to her role that makes her a standout character in the film.
