Plot Summary:
Eve is a woman abused both physically and mentally by her husband Jimmy, an unseen but ever-present threat to her safety. She lives a quiet life, forced to stay at home, spending her days doing housework, reading magazines, and secretly watching the soap operas her husband hates. Life for all in the household is disrupted by Tony, a contractor hired to build her "Dream Kitchen." Tony's influence on Eve is subversive, and she starts taking small but dangerous chances. Tony has his own agenda, and, fueled by a gambling addiction, he continually challenges the odds as he spins out of control. Will he be Eve's savior, or the catalyst for her destruction?
