In the opulence of the 1920s, a defiant socialite challenges the norms of upper-class society and resists her family's attempts to curb her lavish lifestyle. Meanwhile, in a contemporary setting, a child with numerous learning disabilities befriends a woman in a scandalous profession. The arrival of an intriguing new student leads a self-conscious teenager to question her sexuality in a hostile school environment. "Parties All Around" weaves together these three stories, exploring the impact of America's social hierarchies on women and young girls, both modern and historical, and how such experiences can shape our entire lives, for better or for worse.
