Description
In suburban Connecticut, Cathy Whitaker is the perfect 1950s housewife, living the perfect 1950s life: healthy kids, successful husband, social prominence. Then one night, she stumbles in on her husband Frank kissing another man, and her tidy world starts spinning out of control. In her confusion and grief, she finds consolation in the friendship of their black gardener, Raymond - a socially taboo relationship that leads to the further disintegration of life as she knew it. Despite Cathy & Frank's struggle to keep their marriage alive, the reality of his homosexuality and her feelings for Raymond open a painful, if more honest, chapter in their lives. Cathy's idyllic existence is just an illusion, and she eventually must choose between living a lie or following her heart.
