Angela Tompkins has a husband, a failing convenience store and a dream of running off to Chicago with her lover, the local banker. In an explosive story that mixes small-town politics, love and betrayal, Angela is forced to face reality when her husband finds out the truth.

For Jeff Daniels' directorial debut, the cast included Guy Sanville as Stu, Sandra Birch as Angela, and John Lepard as Frank.
