The grass is not always greener on the other side of the fence but we go to great effort to climb that fence, only to realize our predicament is worse than before. We go through the steps we took and then moan if only I had done it differently.

Darlene Hawkins struggles to provide for her family in a community steeped with traditions and the dominance of the man over his wife. The opening of the mysterious manufacturing plant in the hills of Tennessee and the introduction of women to the working world give Darlene a means of escape.
