This is a lovely film, filled with very well-rounded characters, sharp script work and packed with actors who can actually act. This is one of those movies you can simply relax with. You don't need a PHD to understand it and you don't need ear defenders to save your hearing from an overblown soundtrack. So pour a glass of your favourite alcoholic beverage, sit back and enjoy.
Grace King Bichon, who is managing her father's riding-stable, discovers that her husband Eddie is deceiving her with another woman. After confronting him in the middle of the night on the streets of their small home town, she decides to stay at her sister Emma Rae's house for a while to make up her mind. Breaking out of her everyday life, she starts to question the authority of everyone.
