In 1933, Hattie is sent to Nebraska after her parents die in a New York tenement fire. Once there, she lives on a farm with Henry and Elizabeth Jansen who are dealing with the deaths of their two children. While Elizabeth has trouble getting out of bed, Hattie feels unwanted and isolated. Together, they try to build a new life and come to terms with their personal losses.
