Grief-stricken over the recent death of his wife, Early Landry (John Carroll Lynch) leaves Mississippi for L.A. and, despite the objections of his overprotective sister (Maura Tierney), moves into a run-down Hollywood apartment complex. When Early finds himself in an intense friendship with his neighbor Freda (Matt Bomer), the simplicity of their shared loneliness and growing affection must be reconciled with the complexity of their disparate backgrounds.
