The life of Elizabeth Benson from a small American town flows measuredly and calmly. Everything is predetermined in advance: study - marriage - work - children. And suddenly a man bursts into her destiny, turning the girl’s cozy but boring little world upside down.

They spend three days and three nights, cut off from the whole world, on an abandoned farm, which causes gossip and condemnation of the townsfolk. But what does the slander of bigots mean compared to true love? And Elizabeth, having overcome herself, acts according to the wise rule: follow your path, and let people say whatever they want.
