- Synopsis
- Sixteen-year-old Polly is busy helping her ailing mother manage their boarding house. She does her work well and the boarders like her but Polly would rather be anywhere else doing anything else. When a doctor advises Polly and her mother to move away from the hard work so her mother can rest and recover, Polly gets her fresh start. Gladly she works at several jobs and struggles to make their meagre funds last to the end of each month. These challenges energize the exuberant girl. When tragedy strikes, Polly loses her courage and zest for life. Everyone misses the happy-go-lucky Polly and wonders if they'll ever see her again.
