Three children grow up together in what appears to be an English-boarding school. As they grow up they began to gain some understanding that something about their lives, this place, is not normal. Told through the eyes of Kathy H, we watch as the three try to understand the love they feel for one another and how to face the future they are bound to. The school where they are raised is actually a breeding ground for clones, created only to provide organ transplants. However, there appears to be some exception made if two individuals are “verifiably” in love. The trouble is there seems to be a unique, unbreakable love triangle between Kathy, Ruth and Tommy.
