Damsels in Distress

Sony Pictures Classics | Release Date: April 6, 2012

Summary: Damsels in Distress follows a trio of beautiful girls who set out to revolutionize life at a grungy East Coast College – the dynamic leader Violet Wister, principled Rose and sexy Heather. They welcome transfer student Lily into their group which seeks to help severely depressed students with a program of good hygiene and musical dance numbers. The girls become romantically entangled with a series of men -- including slick Charlie, dreamboat Xavier and the mad frat pack of Frank and Thor—who threaten the girls’ friendship and sanity.
