The Heidi Chronicles follows an intelligent young woman, Heidi Holland, and her friends as they grow from insecure high school students into fully established adults. The group navigate careers, friendships, and lovers as they make their way through the second-wave feminist movement of the 1960s through the 1980s, questioning its implications for identity, relationship, and daily life as women at the end of the 20th century. While their lives do not exactly end up as they imagined, Heidi and her friends discover the importance of friendship and community along the way, tackling the challenges they face and sharing their hope that there will be a better life for women to come.
