Set against the backdrop of the 1970s, the story follows four newly divorced friends—Beth, Connie, Michael, and April—navigating their transformed lives as suburban housewives in Chicago. Embracing a lifestyle filled with escapades, including casual sex, drugs, and alcohol, they find themselves in stark contrast to the political upheaval surrounding them. While the nation grapples with protests and social issues, these women remain largely detached from the political discourse, focusing instead on their personal journeys and the complexities of their new identities.
