Mom Violet works at a downtown diner; dad Winston struggles to keep his job in the kill room of a slaughterhouse; son Toby fixes cars and dreams of owning his own garage, and daughter Emma, still in high school, dreams of becoming a doctor. But when forbidden love crashes up against reality, everyone's options are limited by what they have inherited, and by what they can, and cannot, choose to give up. Sometimes a life changes in a moment, and sometimes it never changes. Unfolding over four days and three times periods, tiny dreams ignite or die as the events of those four days unlock the family's future -- a future that plays out in the middle of the present.
