Victor is a struggling playwright and theater director, and his girlfriend Mary is expecting their first child. He has a temporary job in construction to make ends meet, but the dusty, dirty job exhausts him. Across town, Mary is a manager at a tony Madison Avenue boutique.

The young couple is about to move out of their bohemian apartment in Brooklyn to the suburbs, all funded by Mary’s father. As Dad keeps buying them things they could never afford, Victor’s claustrophobia and sense of entrapment grow. His inner struggle to meet their expectations seems to be guiding him toward a way of life he is unwilling to accept.
