As Neil Perry's cousin from France arrives in Essex she would never have thought to ever find love again. After she has been cought with a boy in bed, he has been sent to a military school and she was suspended for six weeks and sent home. Now she's under the strict control of her uncle and aunt, who have taken her in since her parents left her and that don't tolerate this reckless behaviour anymore. But as she can't suppress her true self, she finds a way to sneak out to Welton Academy where she gets introduced to the Dead Poets Society, a group of boys, including her cousin, that want to make more of their lifes than just doctors and attorneys. Especially this one adventurous boy catches her attention and a dangerous romance begins to flourish. As they all try to follow their dreams, they risk not only their place at the school but also the chances of their future and the one of their supportive teacher Mr. Keating. And with risk there also comes loss. As a tragedy unfolds she has to decide whether she can keep her faith or will fall under the strict plans of her uncle.
