When 13-year-old Polly befriends two suffragettes in the top floor flat at 6 Chelsea Walk, she finds herself questioning the views of those around her. The 'Votes for Women' campaign strikes a chord with Polly and she becomes determined to join the suffragettes' protest march, even if it means clashing with her family.
