Description
Damsels in Distress is a 2012 comedy-drama film written and directed by Whit Stillman, starring Greta Gerwig, Adam Brody, Lio Tipton, Megalyn Echikunwoke, and Carrie MacLemore.
Violet (Gerwig), Rose (Echikunwoke), and Heather (MacLemore) are three students at an East Coast Ivy League university who feel that their mission in life is to save their fellow students from themselves. They run a suicide prevention center, encourage hygiene and try and change the less intelligent and mature of the men on campus by dating them. When new student Lily (Tipton) arrives, they eagerly take her under their wing and into their well-meaning but eccentric crusade to make the world a better place.
