In the mid 1990s, a group of teen girls live out their dream when they all sneak out to see their favourite boy band play live in concert.
Twenty-five years later, all their lives have changed and the group has lost touch. But then, Rachel, the leader of the group, wins tickets to see the boy band performing their reunion tour.
It's one more epic show for the long lost friends to all see and a chance for the women to reunite and reignite their friendship and discover that maybe, their greatest days are ahead of them.
A blast of feelgood reunion excitement. Don't miss it. - The Guardian
