On a day, just like any other day, Henry, an architect in New Orleans, gets ready to go to work. His pregnant wife, Penny, sees a 14-15 year old girl going through their and other neighbors' trash and tells her husband to talk with the girl and perhaps help. Penny kisses Henry goodbye and tells him to be bold at a decisive day at work. This day is not going to be like all the others. The clients are more than satisfied at work and a partnership in the company is offered. But then comes the call. Penny's car crashed on her way to see her mom and Henry's alone. Henry tries to befriend the teenage girl, his wife mentioned. She's trying to build a raft out of garbage and Henry wants to help her.
