Seven friends, recent college graduates, are searching for a place in "the real world," as they face the issues of career and commitment. Leslie and Alec (Sheedy & Nelson) try to save a crumbling romance. Wendy (Winningham), a shy virgin, hides her love for Billy (Lowe), a reluctant father/husband still searching for goals. Kevin (McCarthy) is a cynical writer who scorns love until he realizes he's in love with his best friend's girl. Kirbo (Estevez), a law student, obsessively pursues an older woman. The beautiful, neurotic Jules (Moore) paints a poignant picture of life in the fast lane. Against the backdrop of St. Elmo's, their local hang~out, they save, betray and love one another as only the closest of friends can.
