Synopsis
When you're 27 years old, High School feels like a long time ago. But how much do we really change in ten years? Does a successful career or a hot fiancé make you one of life's winners? Or are we still the same old losers we were in High School?
With a surprise invite to their Ten Year High School Reunion, Bec, Jenny, Frances and Sophie are about to discover what it really means to be a winner.
Bec, Jenny, Frances and Sophie are content in the different lives they've forged for themselves. Thrown together in High School to avoid the attentions of school bitch Tiffany Turner, the girls have graduated to women and have moved on from their High School days.
Or have they? A surprise invite to their Ten Year Class of 2001 Reunion throws into question just how far the girls have really come.
They attend the Renwood Girls High School Reunion determined to prove they are no longer the losers they were once dubbed. But Tiffany Turner hasn't changed and the women remember the solace they once found in each other's friendship.
Together again, they soon discover what it really means to be a winner. But does the prize equal happiness? Or will the women be faced with the challenges of re-evaluating their lives?
