Synopsis

Two rebellious teenagers from Southern California, Joan Jett and Cherie Currie, rise to prominence as the frontwomen of The Runaways — a trailblazing all-female rock band that opened doors for future generations of women in rock. Under the overbearing, manipulative stewardship of impresario Kim Fowley, the group quickly ascends to national fame.
