After Mia Fredricksen's husband of thirty years asks for a pause - to indulge his infatuation with a young French colleague - she cracks up (briefly), rages (deeply), then decamps to the prairie town of her childhood to consider her position. It's a familiar scenario, though what transpires in this provocative, mordant and vivacious tragicomedy is anything but predictable.
