Synopsis:

Because Alice and Howard Goodwin run a small dairy farm in the midst of encroaching suburbia, and because their eccentric way betray their city origins, they are shunned as 'that hippie couple', outsiders in the small Midwestern town of Prairie Center. Nevertheless, they feel that they and their two small daughters are living in a self-made paradise. But Alice has always believed that all it would take to fall from grace is 'one stupendous error, or else an unfortunate accident.' And one morning, while Alice is babysitting her neighbour's children, a tragic accident does occur on the farm. This sets into motion a devastating and irrevocable string of events that will change the Goodwins' lives for ever as they find themselves trapped in a nightmare from which they cannot escape.
