On what seemed to be another uneventful, long, hot summer day, a mysterious 13-year-old girl, Lily Jane Bobbit (Tania Raymonde), stepped off the 5 O'clock bus and set off a sequence of events that changed the small town forever. Two best friends, Billy Bob and Preacher, have never met anyone quite like Lily Jane and are determined to win her over and help her to achieve her dream of going to Hollywood to become a star. The two battle for her attention and as the summer months wear on, it is clear that they are on a collision course with one another that could not only destroy their friendship, but also take the tiny town with them. Meanwhile, a smooth talking show promoter (Tom Arnold) comes to town and tries to con the locals out of their life savings. The boys, Lily Jane and her best friend, Sister Rosalba, take it upon themselves to track down and capture the crooked Mr. Quince and turn him in to the local authorities. In the process of trying to outwit the con man and return the town's money and dignity, the kids are also reminded of the meaning of true friendship. Winner of the Worldfest-Houston Platinum Award for Family and Children's films, it is a film of courage, fun and friendship set in a time when America was younger and dreams could come true....just like the wishes of "Children On Their Birthdays.".
