On the eve of the 1940 election cycle, Herman Levin anticipates a promotion at work and taking his family to look at a house in an upwardly mobile neighborhood, though his wife, Bess, is wary of leaving the safety of their tight-knit Jewish community and raising a family amid growing anti-Semitism sparked by Charles Lindbergh's ascendancy. As the family spinster, her sister has a disappointing rendezvous with a married lover, but later finds herself charmed by a local rabbi."
