Based on a true story, Drew Barrymore plays Beverly, a college-bound young woman with a flair for writing. Her life is forever altered when she becomes pregnant at 15. Against her own desires, she marries her baby’s father, Ray (Steve Zahn), and struggles with both motherhood and her husband’s drug addiction, all the while still fighting for a better life.
