Film Synopsis

Louise, Sam and Lili are three women who have not yet met each other but who share the same overriding desire to change their lives.  Louise walks away from the family dry cleaning business so that she can work for a large company than manufactures dolls.  Lili, a former beauty queen, makes the acquaintance of a wealthy businessman.  Sam, mother of a large family, seeks independence.  The world is changing and so is the world's perception of women.  But are women really changing how they are being seen or are they just conforming to a new stereotype...?
