Set against the backdrop of a changing America in 1976, this coming-of-age story follows two eighteen-year-old high school graduates, Cindy and her longtime neighbor, as their once-thriving industrial hometown of Montbray collapses into economic decline, rising crime, and urban decay following the end of the defense boom.

As families flee the deteriorating city for the suburbs, both of their households independently decide to relocate to the neighboring town of Satterfield. Inside a bedroom filled with the heavy rock sounds of Kiss and the gritty spirit of the 1970s, Cindy sneaks through a window to share the bittersweet reality of their graduating class scattering to the wind. Trading the optimistic pop culture of the 1960s for the harsher, electric edge of a new decade, the two teenagers grapple with the uncertainty of their futures, the loss of the only home they have ever known, and the quiet anxieties of stepping into an unpredictable tomorrow.
