Gute Freundinnen helfen dir, wenn es mal nicht so läuft … Beste Freundinnen helfen dir, eine Revolution anzuzetteln. Die Highschool-Schülerinnen Abby, Brit, Christine und Sasha haben die Nase voll. Hazelton High hat nie genug Tampons. Oder Binden. Oder Erwachsene, die zuhören. Vollkommen genervt von der Schuladministration, die Football wichtiger findet als die Gesundheit von Frauen, werden die Mädchen mit einer Gesellschaft konfrontiert, der Menstruation nicht nur egal ist, sondern die sich – noch schlimmer – davor ekelt. Das wollen sie ändern. Keine leichte Aufgabe, besonders wenn man nebenher auch noch Schule, Verliebtsein und das Erwachsenwerden meistern soll. Doch die Mädchen halten zusammen, bis eine von ihnen mit einer Aktion die Grenzen ihrer Freundschaft testet und die Clique dazu bringt, die eigenen Möglichkeiten neu zu bewerten. Jetzt müssen sie zusammenarbeiten und sich gegenseitig pushen. Schaffen sie es, ihre Haltung rüberzubringen und die rote Revolution anzuzetteln?
