At the height of the foreclosure crisis, single mother Crystal loses more than her house. She struggles to stay positive, though with plenty of help from a roommate with conspiracy theories, a motivational speaker with a secret, and her colleagues at the local Saturn dealership. But optimism is no match for a bad economy, and before long Crystal's desperate quest to regain what she's lost turns into the fight of her life. This darkly comic thriller explores just how far we'll go to get back what's ours.
