A high-energy period drama about teenage rebellion and female empowerment in 1970s rock music, tempered by the darker costs of fame and manipulation.

Joan Jett and Cherie Currie, two rebellious teenagers from Southern California, become the frontwomen for The Runaways -- the now-legendary group that paved the way for future generations of female rockers. Under the Svengali-like influence of impresario Kim Fowley, the band becomes a huge success.
