Hit by tragedy, a married couple has their anniversary party and an unusual guest arrives.

One day, electricity just stopped working and the world was suddenly thrust back into the dark ages. Now, 15 years later, a young woman's life is dramatically changed when a local militia arrives and kills her father, who mysteriously—and unbeknownst to her—had something to do with the blackout. An unlikely group sets out off on a daring journey to find answers about the past in the hopes of reclaiming the future.

Sex, drugs, money, murder - not to mention love, heartache, humiliation, guilt, revenge, redemption - are central themes in this wicked dark comedy. Tracking six not-quite-so-young oilmen and dancers as they pursue life with reckless abandon in boomtown Houston during the Eighties, the story careens from casual pick-ups to painful break-ups, from betrayal to reunion with hardly a pause for breath.
