Jacket: "To escape her cruel, angry father - and discover the truth about her late mother's past - 14-year-old Lily Owens (Dakota Fanning) flees with her caregiver and friend Rosaleen (Jennifer Hudson) to a South Carolina town where she's taken in by the bee-keeping Boatwright sisters (Latifah, Alicia Keys, Sophie Okonedo). Surrounded by the unexpected love, grace and spirituality she encounters there, Lily forms a bond with each of these uniquely gifted women and discovers that sometimes you must leave home in order to find it."
This is an endearing and moving film. Have a hankie handy.
