John Freeman manages a successful hardware store to support his family, but he dreams of doing something more with his life, something important. He hopes to buy the store someday, but will that be enough? John's wife Hannah dreams only of raising a family of decent, well-behaved children, but demons from her past haunt her, and her family crumbles. John and Hannah's son Aaron hopes for a pro basketball career. When he wins a basketball scholarship to a top tier school, he is on his way, but he faces long odds: Is he good enough for the pros? Aaron's sister Sally hopes one day to become a pediatrician, but Hannah, the one person who should provide her primary support, thwarts her dream and drives her from home into an uncertain future. The fractured family turns outward for support, finding it in unexpected places when fate intervenes. Dreams are elusive, and they sometimes die, but others often arise to take their place. In the end, all it takes is a little love from those closest to you.
