Bookish tomboy Frankie Addams doesn't get along with the rest of the girls in her tiny southern town. Depressed, socially isolated and perched on the verge of adolescence, Frankie takes refuge with the family maid, Berenice, and pals around with her young cousin, John Henry, while secretly fantasizing about going away with her brother, Jarvis, and his new bride, Janice, on their honeymoon to Alaska.
