The modern-day fable is set on the rusted mean streets of Coney Island, Brooklyn. The dual storyline parallels four people who set out in pursuit of a better life. On the one hand, there's Sara, a lonely widowed mother who is galvanized by the prospect of appearing on television. Then there's her son Harry, his beautiful girl Marion and his best friend Tyrone who want to go into business for themselves. Soon their beautiful dreams begin to fall apart as they take on horrifying dimensions. Yet Sara, Harry, Marion and Tyrone refuse to abandon hope. Even when everything falls apart, they refuse to let go, plummeting with their dreams in a nightmarish gut-wrenching freefall.
