The Magic of Ordinary Days

“In a world at war, he gave her a place of peace.”

Livy (Keri Russell) is an educated young woman, pregnant out of wedlock, who wants some say in a life her father is already arranging for her. He pressures her into marriage with Ray Singleton (Skeet Ulrich), a lonely farmer, in the middle of the Second World War. Brent Shields follows her to his farm, where Martha (Mare Winningham) is nearby and the days begin to settle into a routine.
