Star Garza just wants a normal, stable, boring life. But her mother, Ree, can't stand to stay in one place for long. Instead, Ree takes Star around New Mexico with her, as she alternates between staying with various men and leaving them for what she calls her time free, which is sleeping in her old van, a cave or an abandoned shack in the desert.
Ree doesn't understand people who prefer steady jobs and homes, and refers to them as domestic livestock. Ree prefers the excitement and freedom of dwelling on the edges of society.
Meanwhile, Star becomes enamored with Interior Design, associating decorated homes with permanent homes. As she matures, she clashes more and more with Ree, until everything changes.
