Vera, a single mother of two young children, is forced to work two jobs to survive after the children’s father abandoned them. To ensure she has enough money to raise her children and to pay her ex-husband’s debts she is a supermarket cashier by day, and a stripper at a gentleman’s club by night.
Sexually harassed in both jobs, one day she reacts violently to a client at the club. Arrested, she is sentenced in court to community service in a retirement home, where her irreverence and youth will shock with the director’s authoritarianism and inhumanity.
For the elderly living in the home, Vera is like a breath of fresh air that will change their lives, making her a true Home Fairy.
