This modern-day version of Shakespeare's play, "The Taming of the Shrew," provides lively viewing with Julia Stiles taking on the role of Katarina Stratford–high strung, but persuasive, older sister of the popular Bianca (Larisa Oleynik). The age-old plot follows Shakespeare's in this story about the war between men and women.

A family flees Soviet-dominated Hungary and migrates to the U.S., but the parents (Nastassja Kinski and Tony Goldwyn) take their daughter Maria with them and must leave their baby daughter Suzanne behind. Six years later, the American Red Cross facilitates a reunion, and Suzanne (Kelly Endresz-Balanki) is brought to the U.S. where more problems ensue over the next nine years with a perplexed Suzanne failing to adapt to her new home and country. This is Suzanne's (now played by Scarlett Johansson) story as seen through her eyes as a 15-year-old who revisits Hungary in an attempt to come to terms with the circumstances of her life. An uplifting story for all ages.
