Anne is an aging widow facing a small, lonely life with even fewer
prospects. Unexpectedly, her tiny social circle expands by one with
the arrival of Beverly. As the two women bond over their many
commonalities, Anne’s dreary existence brightens. Their blossoming
friendship soon sparks something more, sweeping Anne into an emotional
affair before embarking her on an adventurous new journey beyond
anything she’s known. What first appears as a fun, lucrative
modelling gig becomes the initial step down a winding path of exploits
entirely outside Anne’s norm. Under Beverly’s guidance, Anne’s
life grows increasingly removed from convention – yet isn’t that
what friends are for? When domestic circumstances then steer events
toward seedier terrain, Anne finds herself immersed in the sex
industry, again chaperoned by her new companion. From bad to worse, a
family crisis threatens to embroil Anne’s daughter in her
unconventional lifestyle. Finally, Beverly bares menacing true colours
through blackmail, leaving Anne hapless and despairing. With nowhere
left to turn, could a humble bookkeeper hold the key to her salvation?
