In the wake of a drama teacher's decision to direct "Lysistrata" (the Aristophanes comedy in which women stop having sex with men in order to end a war) for the high school play, the women in the town begin to sexually reject their husbands and boyfriends in ways that force both men and women to reevaluate their views on relationships and sexuality.
