Trapped in an abusive marriage, Norma is approached by a strange, daring young man the day of her daughter's wedding.

Consumed by guilt and regret, Brian attends the wake of a lover he once abandoned and meets her husband and son.

Wanting to leave his painful past behind, David decides to move to Spain, but before leaving, he agrees to help a colleague's mistrustful wife by spying on her husband.

When a lover from the past reappears in his life, Nick is faced with an unforeseeable, life-threatening decision.

After losing his job to corporate downsizing, Amador recalls the day long ago when his father threw a dinner plate against the kitchen wall and comes to a deeper understanding of the real world.
