Their father is at war, no one knows when he’ll be back. The four sisters, Meg, Jo, Beth, and Amy, with their Marmee set out to live a life which is full of gratitude, love, compassion, and family.

Jo March is rebellious and creative, Meg longs for a marriage and home of her own, Beth has the softest heart whose tunes can be heard in the angelic music she plays, and Amy dreams of a refined existence and home.
