Beat Girl

After being away for three months, middle aged divorced architect Paul Linden returns to Britain with a new bride on his arms, twenty-four year old Parisienne, Nichole. Paul's sixteen year old daughter, Jennifer Linden, is at a rebellious stage of her life, and in an already strained relationship she has with her father, Jenny has an immediate dislike for Nichole as his new wife, while Nichole just wants to be Jenny's friend. Jenny's rebellion is largely manifested in she hanging out with a beatnik crowd, the individuals within who have the same disdain for authority as Jenny. In not wanting to make life for Nichole easy, especially as she believes neither Paul or Nichole love each other - Paul incapable of such in only being in love with his Utopian vision of a new city, what he has coined City 2000 - and that Nichole is only after her father's money, Jenny, coincidentally meeting Greta, an acquaintance of Nichole's from Paris, wants to use information from Greta to ruin the marriage. In the process, Jenny enters into a situation she believes she can handle in that continued rebellion, but which may place her in a position over her head.
