Where the Student Body Was a Chick Named Veronica... The Senior Prom was a 'belly rub' and the Class of '64 ran a Permanent crap game in the Men's Room!
In the mid-1960s, a group of high school friends who live on the Near North Side of Chicago enjoy life to the fullest...parties, hanging out, meeting new friends. Then life changes for two of the guys when they are falsely arrested in connection with stealing a Cadillac. We follow their lives through to the dramatic end of high school.
