In Lake Charles, Louisiana in 1963, Caroline Thibodeaux is a maid for a Jewish family whose young son, Noah, prefers Caroline's company to that of his stepmother, Rose. While Caroline is not happy working in the hot, muggy basement laundry room, she is much more disturbed by the changes that the American civil rights movement threatens to bring about in her carefully ordered world. When Rose enlists her help in teaching Noah not to leave money in his pants pocket, the tide of social change begins to affect her life firsthand, and she must come to terms with the end of segregation. Featuring Tamara Siler as Caroline.
