Inspired by true events, this is the story of Gwendolyn Green, an aging widow who spends her days in solitude inside a fenced-in Palm Springs residence, as if trapped in another era. When her lack of social skills and isolation begin to suffocate her, she picks up the phone and calls 911 in search of human connection. Gwendolyn forms a special bond with the officer who answers, and finds in him the care and connection to the modern world that she craves.

Johnny Miller was a typical 15-year-old until his father committed suicide. Now Johnny lives in Palm Springs with his mother and her new husband. On the outside, Palm Springs is a paradise - but as Johnny learns the secrets that lie just beneath the surface of this seemingly typical neighborhood, he and his family wonder how well they really know the people who live right next door.
