 In 1963, the first US quintuplets to survive were born in Aberdeen, South Dakota. We meet the Fischers - the babies  parents - two weeks after the babies  birth; we see the physician and each infant. Then, we meet their several older siblings, see some of the donated items, watch dad take his older children around the farm in his Model T Ford, and follow mom on a shopping trip. The family discusses keeping the quints  lives away from the spotlight, and the city fathers talk about commercial possibilities. The film ends with a town dinner, speeches, and a parade to mark the quints  first month of life. The school band, the parents in a convertible, and then a sudden rain.
