“She's an executive on the move. But her career is taking her a little farther than she expected.”

Lucy Hill (Renée Zellweger) is a Miami executive who loves her shoes, her cars, and the next rung of the corporate ladder, and she takes a temporary posting in the middle of nowhere because a big promotion is close at hand. Her job is to restructure a manufacturing plant, and Jonas Elmer sets her down among the locals, including union rep Ted Mitchell (Harry Connick Jr.). The promotion is right there, and the plant's workers have the most to lose.
