Summary
Set amid a soot-choked Pennsylvania landscape, the film takes up with a distant and soft-spoken woman, who has left her husband, lost custody of her children, and now finds herself alone, drifting between dingy bars and motels, where she falls prey to a series of callous men, one being a bank robber who ropes her into his next criminal scheme.
