In a Catholic reformatory in 1914, three teenage girls (Anne, Theresa, and Lucy) pass the time with masturbation rituals, though they're innocent of the "sinful" nature of their act. Then a belligerent new girl, Joan, shows up, bearing illegal contraband: birth control materials distributed by the woman's rights activist Margaret Sanger [founder of Planned Parenthood]. The girls start reading the material and jokingly pretend to venerate Sanger as a saint, but then undergo a profound conversion experience.
