A man about forty years of age tells the story from when he was a teenager in upscale suburban Detroit of his and three of his friends' fascination with the mysterious and doomed Lisbon sisters. In 1974, the sisters were seventeen year old Therese, sixteen year old Mary, fifteen year old Bonnie, fourteen year old Lux, and thirteen year old Cecilia. Their fascination still remains as they try to piece together the entire story. The sisters were mysteries if only because of having a strict and overprotective upbringing by their father, who taught math at the girls' private co-ed school, and overly devout Catholic mother, who largely dictated the household rules. The story focuses primarily on two incidents and the resulting situations on the girls' lives. The first was an action by Cecilia to deal with her emotions over her life. And the second was the relationship between Lux - the sister who pushed the boundaries of the household rules most overtly in doing what most teenagers want to do - and Trip Fontaine, he who could have any girl he wanted but wanting solely Lux. 她们始终听不见 我们在门外的呐喊。一场关于青春的记忆。电影的中心不是谴责父母的吗？。有多少属于青春。多么熟悉的绝望。要是里斯本先生没有买下那条街上的房子……。你看你看笑容多明亮，你看你看她们去自杀。。只是选择。。《处女自杀》：美丽与残酷半步之遥。未死的纯洁。 一把冷冷的男声带来了故事的开始。青春期对里斯本一家的5个豆蔻女儿们来说，是一道迈不过的槛。首先自杀的是最小的女儿赛西利娅（汉娜霍尔 Hanna R.
