Louie, a wealthy writer, returns to his beleaguered hometown after his father passes away. The town, a weathered setting, and its people, equally worn, have served as the spiritual muses for Louie's popular, rustic anthology. Upon his return, Louie is reunited with his childhood friends, the very same people he utilized as central characters in his pretentious novels. Thus ensues a confusing swirl of nostalgia and enmity as Louie is dragged from party-to-party, coming face-to-face with those whose lives he's exploited for his own financial gain. But soon, as his grip on reality slips, he begins to wonder if these ostensibly simple townsfolk don't have their own version of payback in mind.
