An artistic antiheroine fumbles through her life of privilege as an NYC transplant to Seattle. Married to a celebrity doctor and separated from her career as an animator, Eleanor Flood spends her days studying poetry with an untenured professor and thinking acerbic thoughts about the other moms at her precocious son s private school. Having lunch with a former minion breaks something free in Eleanor s past, and her life falls apart over the course of an afternoon.
