Media vida

In 1950, five schoolgirls boarding with nuns hold one last game of truth or dare before two of them, a pair of twins, leave for a new life. That night has consequences none of them foresaw. Three decades later, in 1981, the friends reunite to find out how their lives turned out and whether time has made forgiveness possible. Their stories show a generation of women making their way in a society that cared more about appearances than honesty.
