Daisy (Danes) has a rough time at her snobby Manhattan private school, where anti-Semitism runs wild and her WASPy classmates think she's a weirdo because she likes to read. She falls for the class jock, Ethan (Law), who becomes intrigued by her when she reads aloud in class a poem she wrote for him. As they develop a relationship, Daisy tells Ethan that she's Jewish and that her Nana (Moreau) was an inmate at a concentration camp. Ethan soon begins to back off, and Daisy bitterly renounces her heritage. Daisy's love woes shamefully overshadow Nana's tragic story.
