In 1959 Virginia, the lives of two girls on opposite sides of the battle for civil rights will be changed forever. Sarah Dunbar is one of the first black students to attend the previously all-white Jefferson High School. Linda Hairston is the daughter of one of the town's most vocal opponents of school integration. She has been taught all her life that the races should be kept 'separate but equal.' Forced to work together on a school project, Sarah and Linda must confront harsh truths about race, power and how they really feel about one another.
