Across town, successful gallery owner Leo is haunted by loneliness, unsettled by the contrast between his life and that of his brother-in-law and oldest friend William, who is enviably content in his faith and his marriage. When Finn wanders into Leo's gallery, a series of unexpected and interconnected events unfold, changing the lives of all four men forever.
