Jason (Mark Webber), a young man from a disturbed family background, feels he's an outsider in his small town. He's very responsible and holds down a regular job at a gas station while also helping out at an old movie theater and trying to keep the theater owner, the sick and heavy-drinking Gus (Harry Dean Stanton), on track. Jason lives with his mother and also has to keep her on track and try to pay the bills so they won't be evicted.
Heading into deep despair, Jason is encouraged by a new friend, Frances (Zooey Deschanel), who is also troubled.
