Meg gets married, Jo comes to know that Laurie is in love with her, Beth is unwell, Amy goes to Europe with her aunt. It is different from childhood and they are mainly on their own. They will now experience the different aspects of family, love, loss, sacrifice, societal expectations and the pursuit of personal fulfilment.
