After serving prison time for a self-defense killing, Sailor Ripley reunites with girlfriend Lula Fortune. Lula's mother, Marietta, desperate to keep them apart, hires a hitman to kill Sailor.

When Sailor lands in jail yet again, the young lovers appear further than ever from the shared life they covet.
