“Jo is a veterinarian in the Boston area and the wife of Daniel, a minister. One of Jou0026#39;s patients is a dog in such bad shape he may need to be put down. The dogu0026#39;s owner turns out to be Eli, one of the group Jo used to share a house with during her hippie days. Through flashbacks, we see the young people from their time in the house.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eJo is unhappy in her marriage and tempted to cheat. Not only that, but Eli has a deep dark secret. Jo is not particularly religious despite who her husband is, but she does have moral dilemmas to face.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThis was probably a well-done movie, but I didnu0026#39;t like it that much. There was a violent incident which was probably necessary to the plot, but we didnu0026#39;t actually need to see the blood. One good thing about this movie: it didnu0026#39;t hide religious faith, though most of Jou0026#39;s friends didnu0026#39;t practice u0026#39;mainstreamu0026#39; religion, if they were religious at all. The best thing was probably the moral struggle Jo had to go through.”
