Sherry, a self-destructive makeup saleswoman, lives by her own set of rules, spending her days confidently touting for makeup products and her nights picking up men at bars. She refers to self-help books for inspiration and likes to watch old black-and-white movies on a small TV set before heading out to the nearest bar to escape her suburban milieu. Once there, she chain-smokes, drinks far too much and picks up just any man for a night of anonymous sex. We soon learn that Sherry is estranged from her family. She occasionally visits her young daughter, Alice, whom she has largely left to the care of her sister, Abby, a quietly disappointed and angry woman who now demands that Sherry step up to the plate, financially if not emotionally. Meanwhile, no one talks about the child’s father. After the ultimatum, Sherry tries to open up a beauty salon with her best friend, Danny. But as Sherry’s love and business plans begin to unravel, she takes control of her life in a dramatic turn of events.
